    DDNS, VPN clients, and OpenVPN in FreeNAS jail

    Hey all, I'm running into a little issue that I'm having a bit of a problem getting around. I currently use PIA, and have had no issues with it. It connects, my whole network is behind it via my router, and all is well. I've cause to get a OpenVPN server instance running on a FreeNAS jail...

    Incorrect firmware flash...

    Hi, Thanks for your reply. I was indeed plugged into port 3. The issue was that while the router recognized that I was plugged in to a port by changing the port status to UP, it would not issue a IP address to any computer plugged into it, only wifi connections could get an IP address. Also...

    Incorrect firmware flash...

    GOT IT! Went in through SSH and issued "mrt-write2 {path to firmware} linux && reboot" command and waited... came back 10 or so minutes later, power cycled the router, and the cfe miniweb server page came up, and disappeared before I could do anything... but was soon replaced with the GUI...

    Incorrect firmware flash...

    Ok... I've tried flashing with the latest versions for the AC87U of ASUS, Merlin, and DD-WRT, with the following results: ASUS - Invalid Firmware Upload. Firmware upgrade unsuccessful. This might result from incorrect image or error transmission, please check the model name RT-AC87U and version...

    I'll try the wifi connection to reflash it, but for the firmware restoration tool, you must be able to connect to the router via a lan connection, which it will not do.

    Incorrect firmware flash...

    and I'm the lucky one that gets to fix it... It looks like my younger sibling (read inattentive twit) flashed his new RT-AC87U with the latest Merlin firmware, however it looks like he selected the RT_AC68U version. This has resulted in the lan and wan ports of his router to be non-functional...
