Hi guys,
I would like to install ProtonVPN and followed the guide to create the VPN in LuCI and it was fine ( https://protonvpn.com/support/how-to-set-up-protonvpn-on-openwrt-routers/) but when I start it not appen in LuCI.
I tried to perform the steps that according to ProtonVPN should not be done with version 21.02.1 but nothing has changed. If in command line execute the command:
/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
return:
udhcpc: started, v1.33.1
udhcpc: sending discover
udhcpc: no lease, failing
And I think that the problem is "udhcpc: no lease, failing".
Hi OldNavyGuy,
yes I have installed luci-app-openvpn...
I tried to perform the steps that according to ProtonVPN should not be done
Can you help me to config vpn?
I did exactly follow the Proton VPN instructions and did not have to rely to command line actions.
The main problem I remember having was that the VPN was not enabled in Luci and would not start.
In the example below, ProtonVPN is not running but I can switch to it by stopping the other VPN and enabling the ProtonVPN.
Don't hesitate to look at the screenshot I posted ! There is a checkmark under the Enabled column and it means that the VPN can start. Without it, it won't start, even if you press the Start button.
Oh yeah! I have restarted wrt3200 and now vpn is started!!!
But if I check my ip (example https://www.myip.com/) is not the vpn IP but is the IP of my router ISP
I am a very beginner with OpenWrt but did you follow the instructions from ProtonVPN ?
Click on the Advanced Settings tab and select the tunX interface (tun0 in the screenshot, which is the most likely if you have a single OpenVPN client/server running). Click Save, then Save & Apply.
