Hi guys, a complete noob here looking for help.
After reading a lot of posts and trying for nights to get this to work I am hoping to get some advice please.
I have my internet connected through a Billion 7800N (modem/router) and now wish to connect this to the Asus RT-N66U.
I wish to still use the Billion for all wireless connections through my ISP but use the Asus for wired connections through a VPN using OpenVPN.
I have installed Merlin's RT-N66U_3.0.0.4_270.26b.trx on the Asus and connected Billion Lan1 to Asus Lan1. I have also turned off the wireless channels on the Asus and DHCP on the Asus.
A wired PC which is connected to the Asus works fine and even with OpenVPN installed on the PC everything works as it should and my IP address gets changed
My problems start when I try to get OpenVPN to run on the Asus.
I have hopefully entered the correct information in the OpenVPN Client Settings and in OpenVPN Keys and when I start the service it goes green and 'on'. VPN Status also shows 'OpenVPN Client 1- Running'
The problem is when I check my IP address it has not changed
I hope somebody can tell me firstly if my set-up is feasible and can infact work and secondly if it is point me in the right direction.
Many thanks.
