    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    I was able to change my modem to "DHCP client" and forward the port for the OpenVPN successfully. I can connect to my router via OpenVPN on my and my wife's iPhones. I did have to restart the ASUS router this morning to be able to connect again though.

    I have talked with them about it and since the modem is functioning correctly they are no help when changing from anything but the default settings.

    Call me a liar. I just tried it again and it connected and is working for the time being. I'm going to set up the port forwarding and see if that sticks.

    My WAN connection said "waiting for IP" but never connected. Its an option on my modem but its apparently forbidden by my ISP.

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    I have tried adding my ASUS router to the DMZ on the modem and I still have a double NAT. When I setup a Static NAT the traffic stops. Would setting up DDNS help me? I'm running out of options.

    I had to change the VPN server settings to match and re-export the ovpn file. It was working and I was very excited but then..... see the post above.

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    I can't put the ISP (Frontier Communications) modem in bridge mode. Every time I do the internet disconnects and have to do a manual rest because I cant reach it via GUI in a browser. I had everything working with the port forward but after about 3 hours the internet stopped working but said I...

    It works on TCP but not on UDP. I've read a thread on here that someone else had the same result. Is that acceptable?

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    I cannot put the Arris in bridge mode. I have tried several times and it severely throttles my connection speeds. I contacted my ISP and they have been less than helpful. So, forward port 1194 (default) on the Arris to my route....then what? Do I need to do anything on the router side? How do...

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    1. Correct 2. Correct 3. It looks like I do. How do I fix it? The first two IP's are not the same. I have tried putting the ISP's modem/router in transparent bridge mode but my connection speed gets throttled, drastically, and its not the greatest to begin with. 4. Im assuming so. How would I...

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    Did not know that. The RT-AC68U is the primary router. The modem from the ISP is also a router (Arris NVG433B) but I have the radio's turned off and the Asus connected via LAN. I know the OpenVPN server on the NAS will not all access to the rest of the LAN. I plan on putting it on the router...

    Asus RT-AC68U Merlin 384.19 VPN setup

    I am trying to setup a VPN to remotely connect to my Synology NAS by running an OpenVPN server on my 68U. Why have the server on the router and not the NAS?? Because having remote access to my entire network could be convent and why not have secure traffic for all of my devices. I have...
