    OpenVPN Server and Client: connect from WAN

    Hi, I have an RT-AC86U running 384.18. I am successfully running an OpenVPN server on the router, and also an OpenVPN client on the router, with Policy Rules so that only 1 PC on the LAN goes via the OpenVPN client interface (Policy Rules Strict used), with all other devices on the LAN using the...

    Unexpected DNS behavior

    Hi, I am running Asuswrt-Merlin version 384.18, with two VPN clients running at the same time, using Policy Rules to assign devices to each. I also have Enable DNS-based Filtering set to On, with Global Filter Mode set to Router. When I set a device's IP to go via WAN interface by Manually...

    Problem generating cert.crt

    Hi, I'm on firmware 384.18 on an RT-AC86U, and under Administration -> System have selected Authentication Method = HTTPS. Now I get the warning message in my browser when I connect to the router WebUI on the LAN, as expected. So I would like to generate a cert.crt and load it in my browser to...

    DNS Server Settings with VPN Client

    Thanks Zastoff, yes I'm confident I'm not getting DNS leaks when I use my true settings but am also trying to piece together how all the DNS settings work together, so would like to understand why the VPN client doesn't connect in my test when WAN DNS servers are fake ones (I'm only using fake...

    DNS Server Settings with VPN Client

    No thoughts on this? It may seem obvious to the experts here but I can assure you it isn't obvious to me. Would appreciate any guidance. I have also changed my WAN DNS servers to third-party DNS servers and run a DNS leak test. This verified that devices going through my VPN are using the VPN...

    Prevent client auto DoH

    Ah thanks I think I get this now. And with your points I think I see what the release note was describing now. So in summary: -This whole setting is to address browsers (eg Firefox) auto using DoH. Nothing to do with manual usage (hence "auto" in the title of the setting). -If set to "Yes"/"No"...

    Prevent client auto DoH

    Ah OK thanks. That confuses me a bit. What would make a user prefer Yes over Auto or vice versa? I have DNSFilter on, set to Router and have a couple of LAN devices with Filter mode set to a custom DNS server (third party DNS). Would Auto and Yes behave the same way for all my devices in this setup?

    Prevent client auto DoH

    Hi, with regards the setting for Prevent client auto DoH, wanted to be sure I understand what the "Yes" option means. I see the release notes say: Added option to prevent automatic DoH upgrade by Firefox. By default this option will only prevent automatic upgrade if you use DNSFilter or...

    DNS Server Settings with VPN Client

    Hi, I have an Asus RT-AC86U, with Asus-Merlin version 384.18. I am running a VPN client. I am trying to get my head around exactly how each of the various DNS settings work together. I'm doing this by running various tests. One particular test has confused me: -My VPN client has Policy Rules...
