VPN - Only Some LAN reachable

Royal2000H

Occasional Visitor
I have an ASUS RT-AC68R

I just setup the PPTP VPN server (I can try OpenVPN if you think that'll solve my issue). I set the Broadcast Support to "Both" just in case.

Enabling the PPTP on my Android remotely, I'm able to reach my synology server (connected through ethernet) through the web as 192.168.1.15 (I can also reach the synology server without VPN by putting in my public IP address as ports are properly forwarding). However, I cannot reach my PC (connected wirelessly) which has some web services running on 192.168.1.93 (that aren't configured to forward ports and be reached remotely).

If I disconnect from VPN and enable Wifi on the Android so that it's on the local network, I can reach my web services on 192.168.1.93.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
 
Check your firewall configuration on the PC. It might reject connections coming from an IP that's from a different subnet.
