Hello!
This is my first post here, although I've been using Asus hardware from long time ago. I own an Asus RT-AC87U and since I discover asuswrt Merlin my life became brighter.
I've tried to draw a simplified version of my network setup (luckily I still maintain some paint skills form my collage time):
In summary, my telco router does not allow bridge mode, and so I setup the DMZ to my Asus RT-AC87U.
I've setup an OpenVPN Server running in AC87U which works flawassly.
The problem is with the OpenVPN Client (to my VPS which is running an OpenVPN server).
When I enable the OpenVPN Client, the session is established and I see the correct external IP (from my VPS) but every LAN device that I force (via policy) to use this VPN looses the contact with the internet (I cant reach any outside site).
What I have already tested, after I enable the VPN Client:
- I've check that the devices ping the router and other LAN devices with normal ping times (< 8 ms in wifi)
- I've checked that the OpenVPN clients can reach the pi-hole DNS server machine and resolve the DNS.
- Even so, and to simplify this debug, I've setup 1.1.1.1 DNS server (WAN tab) and made sure that the "LAN - DCHP Server" tab the DNS is set to the router (10.10.10.1) but no luck either
Router config screens:
home page:
wan page:
openvpn client config page:
system log - routing page:
I would appreciate any help you could provide.
Thanks in advance!
