The layout is like this, where the server side is on the left and the client side is on the right: AsusWRT (OpenVPN server, 192.168.5.1) --- Internet (WAN) --- Client-Side gateway (Huawei) - Linksys (OpenVPN client, 192.168.5.2) The server-side LAN is centred around the AsusWRT and the...

Thank you for the hints! I took a look at the x3mRouting utility and policy-based routing but they seem to be for AsusWRT Merlin only. Since I can establish two-way connection to the Linksys router from the server-side LAN, I can be sure that any signal from the server-side LAN passes through...

Yes. The caveat is that the modem router is not very configurable. It is a small portable consumer thing (Huawei E5783B). Yes. Yes, the client openvpn is on Linksys (running FreshTomato). Yes. The Huawei modem router is the internet gateway for the Linksys (Client OpenVPN). I am not sure if...

Should I have posted this under "VPN" instead?

I need a site-to-site OpenVPN connection between two LANs in different locations. I have managed to get the OpenVPN connection running but there seems to be a problem with client-side routing. The OpenVPN server is on Asuswrt-Merlin (Asus RT-AC68U). That machine is the gateway, 192.168.0.1, on...

The suggested openvpn-event script worked for me, and I have now replaced the original script in the summary with the new one.

Here is a summary of the above process for those who may have trouble making a secondary router (Asuswrt-Merlin) on a LAN function as an OpenVPN server for remote clients to access that LAN Credits for making all this work go to ColinTaylor. My configuration: 192.168.8.0 - OpenVPN network...

Strangely enough, it worked!! An enormous thank you so much once more! The OpenVPN is now finally functional. Should I leave everything like that or are there any adjustments to finalise this solution?

The script did not change the NTP situation (still had to press apply). I have now uploaded a system log to https://pastebin.com/x5nwpHT2 There I left your latest script running from services-start. After reboot, OpenVPN connected but was not pingable. I waited for a few minutes and then...

sleep 10 did not help. In the system log, for some reason, I cannot see the exact operation of changing to the correct time, it just happens, like this: May 5 08:05:09 kernel: hub 3-0:1.0: USB hub found May 5 08:05:09 kernel: hub 3-0:1.0: 2 ports detected Dec 2 04:27:11 kernel: SCSI...

The debug log showed a simple reason: custom scripts were disabled in System -> Administration. What I cannot understand is how the openvpn-event script could still run. But it did. As for NTP, I discovered that the correct command should be: ntpd -p pool.ntp.org After enabling custom scripts...

I thought the same. I agree, that seems plausible. At the end of the system log, I can see: May 5 08:05:12 WAN_Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected. It is difficult to understand though why the router assumes that it has to have some kind of WAN connection even when I have...

Done. Grep returned (before reboot): 869 admin 1432 S /usr/sbin/ntp -t -S /sbin/ntpd_synced -p pool.ntp.org -p 192.98.49.11 2596 admin 1412 S grep ntp I also removed the ntpclient line from the script because apparently it would not work if it did not work manually. After...

I added "logger -t TESTING XXXXX" as the second line. However, I cannot see any reflection of this in the system log. I also tried adding the nameserver line into the openvpn-event script but it did not work from there either. After a reboot, the resolv.conf file was still empty. However, the...

This script did not work. After rebooting, the DNS still fails, time was not synced and I see no reference to "nameserver" in the system log (and /tmp/resolv.conf is 0 bytes). When I try to enter those commands manually in SSH, I get "ntpclient: not found".
