    OVPN server troubles with certain Android apps?

    Nothing in the log at all. Thats the VPN app I already use on my Android. OK - so I should of tried this before but if I connect to my work VPN the BBC Sports app works. Definately something funky going on with my VPN.

    OVPN server troubles with certain Android apps?

    I've spent most of the weekend trying to figure out why my Open VPN server is acting all wierd without any sucess. Troubleshooting VPN has made me realise I know very little about what I am doing. The story goes like this; 192.168.0.1 = 86U 192.168.0.2 = Asustor NAS running CIFS (ethernet)...

    [SOLVED] Time synchronization problem

    I believe I had something similar a couple firmware upgrades ago. My NTP would not update by rebooting my 86U alone. I had to completely power down the router and power back up. Since then it has been fine.

    Installing pihole directly on asus router

    Spot on and thank you. It was DNSfilter that was killing everything. I've disabled and all is working well. Need to test further when I get time (kids went into trauma because of the downtime yesterday haha) Thanks again.

    Installing pihole directly on asus router

    Still no cigar. I'm at a complete loss now. When I log into the Pi-Hole and go to network all my devices are listed and green but the router and laptop I am testing from are both using wlan0 whereas all the other devices are listed as eth0. Dunno if that relates to the problem.

    Installing pihole directly on asus router

    Can you or anyone else help me getting Pi-Hole running correctly on 86U with latest Merlin? Router 192.168.0.1 (DHCP on with 40 static IP's assigned one of which is the Pi-Hole @ 192.168.0.5) Pi-Hole 192.168.0.5 (DHCP off) No matter what settings I try I either can't resolve addresses or I can...

    ADblocker question

    I'd like to try Pi-Hole instead of Diversion (if not just to tinker with new stuff). Anyone have any guides to setting this up and what equipment would I need?

    [384.14_Alpha - builds] Testing all variants.

    Using .14 alpha2 on my 86U without any problems. I use Diversion, AMTM, Skynet without any problems. Not sure why other 86U users are experiencing problems. I dirty flashed from .13 too

    OpenVPN slows to crawl after 24 hrs

    Is this with TG on TCP?

    OpenVPN slows to crawl after 24 hrs

    Thanks for the info! I did not know this so I stand corrected. I don't use any Torrents of any kind on my network. The two devices I use for VPN are Nvidia Shield TV boxes - I pay for the TorGuard UK Streaming service which ensures things like BBCi Player, Amazon Video, Netflix work. I've not...

    OpenVPN slows to crawl after 24 hrs

    Absolutely but there is no reason for a TCP VPN connection to slow from 70MB/s to 3MB/s after 24 hours. I've scrapped running OpenVPN on my 86U in favour for running the VPN app on a client basis. I only need VPN for two of my devices so I'm thinking offloading the VPN duties from the router to...

    OpenVPN slows to crawl after 24 hrs

    Anyone have any experience of their OpenVPN slowing to a crawl after 24 hrs uptime using Torguard TCP? My usual speeds with the above (client 1) is around 70MB/s but after some time it drops to a constant 3MB/s. If I log into my 86U and change it from TCP to UDP the speed goes back to normal. I...

    VPN Server and Plex Server

    Hi. Yeah, my VPN is TUN. I will try TAP at some point. Strangely I've since realised without the port forwarding enabled I can still connect even though Plex says no remote connection. I've kinda given up with it. It works without an open port and I don't need to connect via VPN. That'll do me.

    http://192.168.0.4:32400 Ping to 192.168.0.4 is fine via mobile network on VPN.

    VPN Server and Plex Server

    As a test I will copy one of my Plex movies (stored on my NAS) to the PC running Plex server and see if I can play the movie via VPN. I bet it works fine.

    VPN Server and Plex Server

    My ISP upload is averaging about 35Mbps. My Plex server is able to Transcode about 4 1080p streams if needed. My films are MKV format, usually about 10 to 20 GB per movie. Like I said, if I open the Plex port on my router everything works perfectly. But that leaves me with a port open which I...
