That's exactly right - the Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) is the OS for Synology DiskStation and RackStation products, just like QTS is for QNAP products. Thank you for all your advice - what a wealth of knowledge! Based on the above, I think what I've done (i.e. torrent client through the...

I haven't given this as much attention as I wanted to; it kind of fell by the wayside... Still I thought I'd give an update since I have it working now. I checked with Surfshark but they couldn't help and, while I played around with the ovpn config file some more, I couldn't crack it that way...

I knew smarter people than me would have already dealt with this issue! I can create a VM on the Synology easy enough - that should do it. Still, I'd like to figure it out without doing so...so I'll keep plugging away. I'll keep this thread updated as I go :)

Thanks for your input. It's my fault. I should have looked into this more before choosing a VPN... I just found a deal for Surfshark for ~$20 for 2 years so I kind of jumped at it, as I was in a rush. I honestly thought it would be straightforward to do this but I've never used a VPN before so...

I just updated my firmware (now on 3.0.0.4.384_8011-gf86f4e8) and this issue has been resolved. My VPN settings survive a reboot!!! EDIT: I have to add a 'sometimes' to this. It's not consistent. When I rebooted it from the router interface, it seems to do fine and the VPN settings survive and...

Sorry, I should have given a little more info on what else I do via the Synology. Here's a run down.... So, I do use a private tracker so ratio is important for me. I have an unlimited internet plan but I recently got a little email from my ISP about 'excessive usage'.... Umm...woops. Don't...

Aah, lucky you! You presume correctly!!! :)

That's thinking outside the box! I bond them (link aggregation) to increase/support transfer speeds... But, even if not, you can't define what runs through which - i.e. I couldn't set run Plex through one and the rest of the activity through another.... I mucked around for a few hours with the...

It's an option but definitely not my preference. Before I had this router, I had the VPN set up on the Synology itself but it was buggy. If I had to reboot my router for any reason, it wouldn't automatically reconnect through the VPN and a key app I use would stop entirely. I would have to go in...

Thanks for your response. I'm not sure that'll work. The Plex server is on my Synology NAS, which has lots of other things going on too - all the rest of those connections, I want through the VPN. The Plex server is the only thing that I don't. The exception list is based on the device IP, not...

Hi All, I'm struggling with how to enable remote access to Plex while using a VPN. Wondering if anyone has any experience with this. I've got an Asus GT-AX11000 running the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.384_8011-gf86f4e8). I've got my Plex server running on a Synology DS918+. Everything worked...

Agreed. Still an issue for me. Have to go through unticking, applying, re-ticking and applying every single time I reboot... Thankfully that's not very often though. No response from Asus

Just wanted to let you know that I've reported this VPN issue through the Feedback tab on the router interface. I incorporated your feedback and noted that it's mildly frustrating when you're on the local network, but entirely prohibitive if you need to do a remote reboot. Asked for a fix...

Ha! Just my luck! I can find very little on this for my router...but I'll try searching the rog forum. Thanks for letting me know - saved me staring at this for ages trying to figure it out! :)

I want to achieve the same thing on a GT AX-11000. Haven't started or done a lot of research yet but, on just my initial scan, it's slim pickings and seriously over my head! If you find a straightforward solution, please post it up!
