    Samba share for Guest SSID users?

    I can see now that my first post wasn't really clear: I'm looking to prevent guest/home users from seeing the work network (and associated data) and vice versa. I currently have guests segregated on the guest SSID and home/work devices on the LAN. Access to work and home shares is controlled...

    Samba share for Guest SSID users?

    I've looked into this some more and think I might need to set up some VLANS... but it looks like I'll have to move away from Merlin and get into Tomato for that :(

    Samba share for Guest SSID users?

    Thanks for the reply and sorry to be a bit dense but how would a NAS help? I already have a few options for storage attached to the (wired) network: N66U USB ports, a FreeNAS box, a Microserver with WHS2011, SMB/CIFS shares on Windows PCs, etc..

    RTN-66U on Latest Merlin build - OpenVPN - need help

    I've just added a WINS server and now I can navigate Windows shares on the LAN from my Android phone running OpenVPN on a TUN interface.

    OpenVPN server 1 - certificate field error

    I'm trying to set up OpenVPN servers on the RT-N66U (Merlin 378.55) but don't know much about networking in general or VPNs in particular. When I switch 'Enable VPN server' in the GUI for Server instance = Server 1, I get the error: "Certification Authentication / Server certification / Server...

    RTN-66U on Latest Merlin build - OpenVPN - need help

    I'd like to know the 'correct' answer to the OP's question too - I couldn't even ping from the VPN-connected machine at 10.8.0.x to the router (192.168.1.x) I think I have it working now by doing as elorimer suggests and changing the interface from TUN to TAP (don't forget to generate a new...
