    IP isn't changing when connected to the VPN

    Hi All, I have an OpenVPN profile that I've created on my asus rt-ac86u. If I connect to the VPN and then view my IP Address it's still showing the external IP of the network the device is on and not the VPN's IP.

    Solved Mobile client > VPN Server > VPN service (internet): possible?

    Hello! So here's what I and my limited understanding of what Merlin can do is theorizing... I'd like to know first if it's even possible (mostly because I can't get it to work): I'd like to use an OpenVPN client on my mobile device to connect to the VPN Server on my Merlin-enabled router...

    Strange issue with OpenVPN on RT-AX55

    I'm trying to set up OpenVPN on my Asus RT-AX55 router. It seems fairly easy - enable OpenVPN, download config files, and it should be good to go, right? Well, the initial setup had old and insecure encryption keys, so I had to generate new ones and update those using the GUI. Granted, it WAS...

    VPN speed gradually slows down vs WAN

    Above is the VPN hourly speed tests ...and WAN speed tests for the same period. If I restart the OpenVPN connection it always immediately goes back to higher speeds and the same declining trend follows. I've also verified the slowing trend via manual speed tests from my laptop browser. The...

    OpenVPN client + server on single Asus router

    Hi I've been troubleshooting OpenVPN on my Asus router for a while and finally seem to have pinned down my issue. From my Android OpenVPN client, I'm able to connect to the router, but can't reach anything (not the gateway, no LAN or internet IPs etc.) Now, I found that when I turn off my...

    Question: Are openvpn CA keys generated on first boot?

    Hello guys, Title says all. So, after flashing a new build I noticed I have new CA\Server Keys in OpenVPN, so, the router doesn't keep the previous keys. My question here is, are these new keys built-in the new ROM image, or are they generated in first boot, and unique per each device? Thanks

    Any need to generate new .crt, .key, .ovpn when moving from an old OpenVPN?

    Apologies if this has been covered, but I can't find the answer. In 2015 I generated .crt, .key, and .ovpn files and am moving to a new router and the latest Merlin. I was using these same files successfully from a 2018 Merlin release. Is there any need to go through the generation process...

    VPN Performance by Core Assignment

    Does the version of Wireguard that runs on Asus AX routers use one or multiple cores ? If two VPNs (OpenVPN or Wireguard) were in use at the same time on an Asus AX router, would the performance be remarkably different on an RT-AX68U versus an RT-AX86U ?

    384.18 -> 386.5: What is the impact to INBOUND OpenVPN server running on RT-AC86U?

    Advance apologies if this is a really stupid question: I currently run 384.18 on an RT-AC86U with inbound OpenVPN. I only have one inbound user (from another UU country) with OpenVPN configured to NOT allow ingress into my network, simply to redirect into UK internet so that user can access...

    Same IP for all clients over TUN

    I have Merlin 386.4 on my RT-AC68U router. I configured TUN OpenVPN, but all my VPN clients are getting same IP 10.8.0.2. Because of this, obviously, the clients are getting disconnected each other.
