    Setting up 2nd Router (VPN) behind my N66U

    I got it to work. Just a few settings. Thanks. I use AWS for the VPN. I read reports that Astrill's IPs were being picked up under Netflix's geoblock so doesn't try it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Have to constantly reboot RT-AC68U

    I have been struggling with this - why do I have to nearly daily reboot my RT-AC68U? * I have Merlin's 380.62 firmware. * I actually don't use the radio's on the router (radios off) * I have an OpenVPN server setup for when I am out and about and want to have security * I have about 34...

    Set up VPN on downstream router

    To get the router to allow traffic through on DD-WRT its mode needs to be "Gateway" mode. Also you need to out it on another subnet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2 routers with the 2nd behind having a VPN not working

    SEM, an Apple TV doesn't have a VPN client. I put a second router with VPN withits own subnet as the PPTP client doesn't have selective routing in the GUI. Whilst I saw you could put together a script to achieve this I made a call on time / money and went with getting a 2nd hand router. Only...

    2 routers with the 2nd behind having a VPN not working

    Thanks Cake. Actually picked up a 2nd hand AC68u to use as my primary and put the N66u as a client and running its own sub-lan just for the AppleTV and PPTP VPN. Its working well. I was unable to get the DDWRT VPN client to work (had too many configuration options for me) Sent from my iPhone...

    2 routers with the 2nd behind having a VPN not working

    I have actually got PPTP to work on my Asus N66U, but not the DDWRT router. Funny you mention openvpn as the client does have selective routing built in. I did see a post for doing selective routing with PPTP by inserting a script in Jfff but reading over it I haven't figured it out yet...

    2 routers with the 2nd behind having a VPN not working

    Hi, I am a little bit confused and I probably didn't explain it well enough. My setup is : Router 1 >-General LAN. Router 2 (VPN) >- Apple TV Network setup is : Router 1 (192.168.1.1) - Switch 1 - Switch 2 - Router 2/VPN (192.168.2.1) - Apple TV Running off Switch 1 & Switch 2 is about 30...

    2 routers with the 2nd behind having a VPN not working

    I originally posted in the asuswrt Merlin sub-forum but I believe it was the wrong forum. Here is my problem: 1. I am trying to get around geoblocking and have a VPN I can use that removes this problem. The only issue is that I have only connected with my iPad and iPhone's clients. It works...

    Setting up 2nd Router (VPN) behind my N66U

    I then tried to run the PPTP on the N66U with no encryption setting but it came back with this: terminated by peer (MPPE required but peer refused) Aug 20 10:37:30 pptp[707]: Connection terminated. Aug 20 10:37:30 pptp[707]: Modem hangup Which looks like the VPN client is being pedantic. Any...

    Setting up 2nd Router (VPN) behind my N66U

    Thanks CaptainSTX, will try that. Also, thought maybe I could do the VPN on the ASUS and have it go directly to the Apple TV, but I also failed in getting the PPTP to work on the Asuswrt-Merlin router (N66U). It came back with the follow log. Not sure what exactly it means: Aug 20 10:26:11...

    Setting up 2nd Router (VPN) behind my N66U

    I am trying to setup a router behind my N66U so that I can have a VPN for my Apple TV (to get around geoblocking). Anyway I haven't even been able to surf the net from a laptop connected to my second router that has DDWRT on it. My main router has an address of 192.168.1.1 whilst I have...

    Ubiquiti Announces $89 AC1200 Access Point

    I am also looking forward to getting 3x the Pro version. I am currently running an Asus N66U (wireless turned off using Tomato by Shibby) with 3 of the Pro N versions. To get any speed I need to use the 5ghz band and its distance is pretty weak. I live in a 2 storey 5500sq foot apt that has...

    Whats are Pro and Cons connecting a external hardisk to wireless router

    I actually tried doing this (although I had a server) just because I could (or so I thought). I have the Asus N66u running TomatoUSB by Shibby. Basically it worked except that it seemed to cause the router to stop allocating IPs to new wireless clients - so I had to remove it.

    Help with install and issues

    update 1.5 mths later. I updated my router to Merlin's latest firmware and took it back to factory settings. This appeared to do the trick and for the last 3 weeks its all been good. But then my cable provider had a some network issues and post that the old problem on the Asus with clients...
