    What is the most secure configuration for OpenVPN Server?

    When using VPN, you will also need to be aware of the port as many places may block the common ports (1194). You may have to use port 443 as your entry port. This is why I mentioned that I didn't think you quite understood what it provides as you mentioned connecting to unsecure WiFi or WEP...

    What is the most secure configuration for OpenVPN Server?

    It doesn't sounds like you quite understand what OpenVPN provides for you. I would read documentation at this url: https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation.html The only advice I would give is to make sure you use a certificate you create. I would not use a static key. The...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 is out

    I believe I found the bug. I verified that it was the following line causing the issue as putting a default value of "" in there made the page load just fine: <input type="hidden" name="status_openvpnd" value="<% nvram_dump("openvpn_connected",""); %>"> When you said you needed to dig...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 is out

    Just to make sure I read correctly, but what you are saying is there is no way to get what the nvram_dump returns from command line and you must use printf's to view the value at the time? I'll play with it some more when I get home and see if I can make anymore sense out of it. Thanks for...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 is out

    Actually the more I thought about it, since the "1," showed up, I have a feeling it actually may be the next line that is causing the issue which is: <input type="hidden" name="status_openvpnd" value="<% nvram_dump("openvpn_connected",""); %>"> Again this page works fine as long as the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 is out

    I've done some more digging on this and I believe I found the culprit variable. It seems when the page tries to load the variable vpn_serverx_eas is when it crashes. Running httpd directly in ssh mode, its throwing a Segmentation fault right at that line. Its seems to be line 809 of the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 is out

    I just flashed my AC66U to this 374.40 and ran into a weird issue. It has already done this 3 times per reboot so I'm fairly sure this is repeatable but not sure on the full details yet. It seems when I'm in the Administration Webpage on the VPN settings, when I go to the advanced settings...

    Upgrading from 3.0.0.4.374.32 to 3.0.0.4.374.34

    I'm just wondering if I can upgrade without having to do a factory reset if I go from 3.0.0.4.374.32 to 3.0.0.4.372.34 on a RT-AC66R. I couldn't find a definite answer on the upgrade from 32 to 33 using AC66 series. Please let me know. Thanks!

    Need help blocking DHCP when using OpenVPN Bridge

    You mention Shibby's OpenVPN firmware. Is this the same version that is on Merlin? Also where exactly would those setting be entered? I'm guessing the custom configuration location but not 100% as there is no firewall configuration location. I could not find a lot of documentation on using...

    Need help blocking DHCP when using OpenVPN Bridge

    I currently have two AC66U with 3.0.0.4.374.32 (Merlin build) installed and have setup a VPN bridge using TAP over TCP. I now need to block the DHCP broadcast from both routers as the logs are showing each broadcast is receiving a response from both routers. Luckly the closer router has been...
