Topic: Repeater with PPTP VPN client connection

The content of this topic has been archived on 23 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hi,

I've setup my router as a repeater based on the simple steps here.
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=39077
Using: MODE 2 REPEATER, DIFFERENT NETWORK

Is it possible to setup a PPTP VPN connection on top of this?

I'm on a TP-Link MR3040 (http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3040) with "OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment 12.09-rc1 / LuCI 0.11 Branch (0.11+svn9425)"

Simply installing and configuring kmod-pptp and ppp-mod-pptp doesn't seem to work.
Tried this http://danielholm.se/set-openwrt-connec … e-pptp-vpn
Also tried PPTP VPN Passthrough based on this article http://www.blackmanticore.com/51f359dfe … 633e2e7c2b

Any advice?

Thanks

What router are you using?

Cheers

Hi justR3laxing,

would you be so kind as to share your config/setting files (wireless, network, firewall, dhcp etc) seeing that you were able to successfully setup yourrouter as a repeater based on the steps here -
