Hello,
i have difficulties configuring OpenVPN. I was already asking in another thread but think like this i can reach more people and don't interfere with the other thread.
Here my Setup:
I'm running LEDE on an Linksys EA9500. Ethernet and wireless are up and running. The EA9500 has IP 192.168.1.1 and is running connected via WAN port behind my ISPs obligatory cablemodem router combo, which has IP 192.168.0.1.
Everything is working fine. i have Internet Access wired and wireless on both routers. So I configured OpenVPN according to NordVPNs tutorial: https://nordvpn.com/tutorials/openwrt/openvpn/
After I enable/start the created OpenVPN i don't have access to the internet from the EA9500 anymore, neither wired nor wireless.
The only difference to the created configuration files on my system compared to the sugested ones in the NordVPN tutorial is in /etc/config/network, where it should say after the configuration:
config interface 'wan'
option ifname 'eth0.2'
option force_link '1'
option proto 'dhcp'
option peerdns '0'
list dns '162.242.211.137'
list dns '78.46.223.24'
and it says:
config interface 'wan'
option type 'bridge'
option ifname 'wan eth2.102'
option proto 'dhcp'
option peerdns '0'
list dns '162.242.211.137'
list dns '78.46.223.24'
Obviously option type is additional, option ifname is different and option force_link '1' is missing after the uci commands. I followed the instructions exactly, but the result in the config file is different.
Things i tried to test:
Running NordVPNs PC App from a PC connected via ethernet to ISPs cablemodem router and the same from a notebook connected wireless and in a seperate test connected wired, wireless disabled to EA 9500.
All Options are working, so passthrough should be not the problem.
Can somebody explain me why and perhaps what to do to get it running?
Thx
