    Open VPN not working anymore

    @Voxel In case you're interested - I just got this working, after coming across this thread: https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Mobile-Data/EE-APN-Settings-Where-to-find-them/m-p/1164908/highlight/true#M146400 With a new APN set up, configured to only use IPv4, it is working again! :)

    Open VPN not working anymore

    Still confused about why it worked with older firmware though. The talk on the EE forum went a bit over my head, but some people were saying the problem is to do with IP4 versus IP6 connections. If you can force your phone to use IP4 then it works OK, apparently. Unfortunately I can't change my...

    Open VPN not working anymore

    Hi Voxel, Thanks for your post. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling OpenVPN on my phone, but it made no difference. I am now thinking that it may be down to my network operator (EE) blocking connection to VPNs. I have just been reading stuff on their forum which implies that they are...

    Open VPN not working anymore

    The plot thickens. I just tried it using my daughters phone, also a Samsung but on a different network, and it works! Using the latest Voxel firmware. So, I can either use my daughter's phone for this sort of thing, or revert back to older router firmware and continue to be able to do it on my...

    Open VPN not working anymore

    Hi @Voxel, Thanks for this. I will try on another phone. The log file just generated from my Samsung shows this: [Aug 06, 2024, 12:22:59] ----- OpenVPN Start ----- [Aug 06, 2024, 12:22:59] EVENT: CORE_THREAD_ACTIVE [Aug 06, 2024, 12:22:59] OpenVPN core...

    Open VPN not working anymore

    Update: I just got it working by rolling back to an earlier firmware that I happened to have in my downloads folder: V1.0.2.100SF Looks like this feature got broken at some point in the last few months. @Voxel - I was wondering if this is something you are aware of?

    Open VPN not working anymore

    Hi, I've been using Open VPN successfully on my R7800 for years. I have a USB drive connected to my router, and when away from home I can access it from my phone by connecting via Open VPN. I use a No-IP DDNS account which ensures that it all works OK if even my IP address changes, which it...

    Dynamic DNS - unable to complete the job

    Hi, I have had to reset my router, and I am setting up the dynamic DNS again - I have a mynetgear hostname, provided by No IP. When I enter the details in the Dynamic DNS page on the router, I get an error which says: "Unable to complete the job, reason:" - but no reason is given. I think I...

    "Available Network Folders" in USB Storage (Advanced Settings)

    Hi all, In the USB Storage (Advanced Settings) page, there is a section which implies that my attached harddrive has been assigned the letter U:\ and as such I was expecting it to appear in Windows Explorer on my PC as such. But no - the only way I seem to be able to access the drive from...

    OpenDNS with R7800

    Hi I concluded that it wasn't working because OpenDNS have a test page at https://welcome.opendns.com which returns a tick if it's working and cross if it isn't. I was getting the cross, but found that I could get the tick if I manually changed the DNS server addresses on my PC. I actually...

    OpenDNS with R7800

    No worries. Incidentally, if I manually change the DNS of my phone or PC, then OpenDNS does seem to work - so it does look as though there is an issue with my router not being configured correctly to pass the correct DNS servers to the connected devices.

    OpenDNS with R7800

    The WAN IP of the router is the one it gets from my ISP - so a public IP address

    OpenDNS with R7800

    Hi The 192.168.0.1 is the router LAN IP. The modem is a Virgin Media super hub (so called) running in modem only mode. As far as I know it is not in bridged mode. Thanks, jra505

    OpenDNS with R7800

    Dear all, Has anyone had any success using OpenDNS with a R7800? I'm running the latest Voxel firmware and the latest Kamoj add in. I've followed all the instructions to set up OpenDNS, and changed the DNS addresses on the router, to the ones they specify. But, everytime I visit their test...

    Unknown MAC address

    I'm beginning to think that the device does not exist and is showing in the "attached devices" screen of the router due to a bug. I've read that a lot of Netgear routers have suffered from bugs with this aspect for years. I've run an app on my phone called Network Scanner, which purportedly...
