    VPN question about usernames passwords

    I tried disabling Manage Client-Specific Options as you suggested unfortunately only the default username works.

    VPN question about usernames passwords

    I'll try your suggestions later tonight when I have time in the meantime here are the general and advanced server 2 settings. If those are too blurry I'll get screenshots from my computer tonight

    VPN question about usernames passwords

    Agreed, I only tried that 'Username/Password Only' setting to see if the usernames/passwords that I created would work but it didn't. I left that setting to 'no' so I am using client certs. Still baffling as to how I can get the VPN clients to use separate usernames.

    VPN question about usernames passwords

    Thx for the response, Yes sorry for the confusion, that's what I meant to say. I just added that line to the custom config field. Adding this does force the server to use the username for the common name. How do I get each client to have their own username and password? I tried enabling...

    VPN question about usernames passwords

    I have 2 asus routers, an AX88U at home and a AC5300 at the remote site, that are linked through a bidirectional site to site VPN link. I use this link to access an ip camera remotely. Both routers are using the latest Merlin firmware. Everything works great because I only have one client...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    Your assuming the US VPN service I subscribed to is just going to divulge everything to the Canadian government just because they have a canadian court order. I'll remind you GiveSendGo refused to oblige to freezing the funds when the court ordered the funds frozen. The VPN company located in...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    Again my goal is not to be invisible as I completely agree this is impossible. My goal is to add additional hurdles that would deter the average hacker away and prevent sofisticated actors like governments from bulk collection of our data. If everyone used a VPN it would be a huge task if they...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    This is Canada not some banana republic where a peaceful protest is considered a terrorist act. We have a PM who took a knee with antifa and blm while they were burning buildings and killing people. Anyways we can continue this in private if you'd like othwise this is getting way off topic, I...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    The ISP knows where I connect but its encrypted and the VPN is in the US so they would have to go to greater lengths to get this info. I'm doing nothing illegal but exercising my right to privacy. I agree that they only have to get a court order to get that information from the VPN but AT...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    My network devices for the most part don't use the VPN and go directly to WAN (~750Mbit), I just enable VPN on my desktop and my cell phone. I've been on on vpn on both my desktop computer and my phone all day and used all the apps and programs that I use on a daily basis and have not...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    Hidden might have been a bad choice of words. I'm from Canada and I am becoming increasingly concerned with the actions of our Totalitarian government vis a vis its citizens. IMO it wouldn't surprise me if they started limited access to sites and apps that encourage freedom of speech...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    I selected the subnet randomly for my internal OpenVPN server and setup my clients after. Are you saying that its just random that when I setup the 2 clients that is just happened to chose to use the same subnet? I can try changing the subnet of the internal server but just I assumed the...

    VPN: How to route all cell data to my home router and use its external VPN instead of WAN?

    I purchased a VPN subscription so that my Router's WAN IP would be hidden. Are you suggesting that the internal OpenVPN server is able to hide the WAN IP from being exposed? My goal is to have my cell phone connect to my router's internal open VPN server securely and access the internet...
