Unable to reach any devices behind RT-AX88U through OpenVPN Server

[wavefunction]

Hello,

I have an RT-AX88U with the latest Merlin firmware (384.13). I've enabled OpenVPN Server on it with the following configuration:

However, when I connect to the OpenVPN server from my client machine on a different WAN, I am unable to access any devices on the router's LAN (192.168.50.0/24), except for the router itself (192.168.50.1). Any ideas what might be wrong? Do I need to make additional configuration changes to the RT-AX88U firewall? The IPv4 route tables on both the client machine and the router look like they have the right entries.

When I connect via PPTP, everything works fine.

Thank you very much for any help or guidance.

I am noticing this same issue as well along with not being able to connect via ssh using this method as well unless I use ipsec or pptp

Make sure you enable LAN access on the previous configuration page.

Thank you. I should've mentioned that LAN only has been selected in the Basic Config section:

Do you mean I should run the following command on the router?

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -o br0 -j MASQUERADE

Correct. That appears to be the solution I have seen posted. I recommend implementing using the method described here:

Please try changing from LAN Only to Both. I know it shouldn’t make any difference, but could you try it please?
