OpenVPN server is set to "both" LAN and internet. When connected, client (Mac, using OpenVPN connect) is able to access internet and LAN without issues, but after a while access to LAN gets denied. Re-connecting VPN or restarting computer does not change this. Restarting router or re-applying...

Makes sense, but there is this "Listen port" in Wireguard client. How would it receive anything on this port, if there is no port forwarding done on the router? I have just verified it again - iPhone on cellular can connect to Wireguard server. If at that point enable Wifi and disable...

Yes, it works fine when iPhone is on cellular. It apparently even works when initiate connection on cellular, then turn on Wifi. But on Wifi, connection cannot be established. This is true for both connecting to my Wireguard server and also the same for a commercial Wireguard VPN.

Thanks, but I have a different problem, description may be unclear. Wireguard on the router is working properly. I am not able to connect to my Wireguard VPN server from corporate Wifi. I am coming to conclusion that Wireguard is somewhat limited for such application, because it is not a...

Thanks, indeed it worked! Not sure why I did not imagine to try it myself...

Thanks, but my custom DDNS which does not require anything from Asus, also gets disabled if I withdraw data collection! That is my issue.

Is it technically possible to deny Asus data collection in custom firmware if only custom DDNS is used and no Asus services? "Privacy notice" says: To protect your privacy, please proceed with the age check. If you are a child under the age of 16, to protect your privacy, generally we will...

This note remains in Asuswrt-Merlin. I do not object data collection where it is necessary (ASD/TrendMicro), but it is clearly not necessary for custom DDNS, and hope it can be fixed somehow.

Ok, but from what is posted, this functionality to forcefully update is somewhat removed in Asuswrt-Merlin, but data collection remains. It also does not make any sense that information required to provide security updates would not be collected from minors to protect their privacy (!!?)...

My point was that this issue IMO could be better handled. And it is an issue, because Asus collection appears to be quite invasive (unless it is already limited, which would be nice to know without digging the forum). What is a reason for forcing data collection for DDNS, even if it is a custom...

ASUS PRIVACY NOTICE Please note that your information will be collected by ASUS router for firmware/security upgrades purposes. If you would like to disable sharing your information with ASUS router, please click[Withdraw]below. Is this information collection relevant to Asuswrt-Merlin? Can...

My current understanding is that Wireguard requires "listening port" on the client be opened from outside, but on the corporate WiFi all ports are blocked from outside, so Wireguard cannot work. Apparently, outgoing port communication is allowed, so OVPN can create a tunnel on port 1194, which...

Apparently, it is even weirder than I thought. On iPhone, if I first connect with Wifi off, then turn Wifi on and cellular off, connection remains working. It should mean that ports are OK? But if I try to connect with Wifi on (with same settings), there is no connection. It is also probably...

I have installed OVPN server is working, but speed connecting to LAN is very slow. Have also installed a Wireguard server and it is working if connecting from the phone on cellular, but not from Wifi. I was suspecting a corporate wifi, possibly behind firewalls or something, but not sure how to...

BE86U WAN-DDNS page displays a warning: *Make sure you're careful with online security when you enable DDNS and allow services to be accessible over the Internet. Take time to enhance security for your router and services, and keep your router's and devices' software up to date." What would...
