Hi,
I have general question, does dual wan and openvpn works properly?
I have currently problems with getting onsite and dig dipper with configuration, attaching devices etc so maybe there is simple answer to that..
Currently on remote site I have rt-ac68u with dual wan configuration - wan is faster, with static IP, generally works fine, and on lan 4 is attached very old DWR-921. I called t-mobile, changed agreement, now there is public IP (this can be still some reason, as maybe t-mobile still blocks something even when they say it should work), dyndns recognizes IP properly when connection is switched as failover, but OpenVPN does not work. DWR-921 is in "bridge" mode, but I also have some suspicion, that this bridge mode is not proper bridge mode (e.g. ping works only when both asus and d-link have enabled ping on wan, but it should depend only on asus settings). On d-link I have disabled every firewall, nat, dhcp etc.
So there can be something with t-mobile "public" IP and blocking, something with this pseudo bridge mode, and something with asus dual wan:)
Last chance is to travel there and connect something directly to this d-link and be sure that it is working fine.

I am asking here, as I found many unanswered questions from people that had trouble with that (maybe will get answer without travel:) ).

//edit - upgraded firmware to newest Merlin version, still the same.
