New Around Here
Evening folks,
I have an RT-AC86U running firmware 384.15.
My question is, how are the five VPN client instances intended to be used?
My guess is that each can hold a different configuration for one of your VPN provider's servers (geographically diverse/different intended use, or whatever), and that only one client instance should be active at one time. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Recently for the first time I had reason to use a second client instance configured for a different VPN server. What I've found since then is that whatever I do the router blocks internet access if I use any of client instances 2 to 5.
I set up a spare slot with the new VPN configuration file from my provider, and every field is identical to the configuration in client instance 1 (except, obviously, the server address), and also has an identical set of client traffic routing rules.
I then set client instance 1 to stay down on boot, the new client instance to start on boot, then reboot...
...and have no internet access from my LAN.
I haven't found anyone in here with similar issues, so I hope someone can kindly help me find where I've gone wrong.
