    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Got build 385 on beta test now from Asus for the 88U bugs I've been fighting throughout this thread. So if you've got here on a DSL-AC88U OpenVPN push to LAN search update to build 385 when it becomes public. All good ATM with the new firmware..

    Yeah I am @256 bit rate 25fps Think it maybe a router setting to improve as I haven't had chance enable and play around with QOS on the Asus yet

    Yeah all enabled but still no LAN access unless I disable the firewall. Asus DSL-AC88U relatively new so maybe a future firmware fix ?

    Finally making some progress. I can web browse to NAS drives and other things on my LAN 192.168.2 range but to do this I had to switch my firewall off which defeats the objective of more security ! I need more help from the more experienced like DWW0311 to help me configure my firewall on a...

    Hi looney2ns, As mentioned by Randy, think it must be due to this model being the DSL and not the RT. I have two options to try out which is to create some routing rules for the 10.0.8.0 subnet or divide my LAN subnet and use a section of that.

    I tried a windows tab tonight but exact same result! :banghead: I can see on the Asus OpenVPN screen that both iPad & windows tablets are connected but neither can browse the LAN when connected from external ip to the OpenVPN. Openvpn shows the connected client on 10.8.0.2 and my Lan is on...

    Asus router has OpenVPN server as standard, all is explained by nayr on the very first post

    That sounds like the issue but no such option on the Asus OpenVPN, well not worded as simple as that

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Yeah it's all connected Randy all exactly as above but can't access any of my LAN clients as I can when physically on my LAN. When I log onto the router from a client within the LAN & can see the client connected (ipad) on the OpenVPN server. Router is a Asus DSL-AC88U if anyone had same issue...

    Okay now tried TCP443 but still no connection to my NAS or any clients or shares within my LAN when connected from WAN OpenVPN. Another screen shot of my connection all the edited with red Ip are the same. Is there suppose to be a value in the client ip ?

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Followed this sticky kindly created by Randy but no mention of changing firewall rules? All other docs I read had no mention of changing firewall rules ? Read all they way through the thread again and maybe 443 is the reason I didn't read any firewall rules being set.

    Finally got my hands on a Asus88U Set up OpenVPN on the router without much drama and decided connect and test with iPad. Ipad connects to vpn and shows connected on iPad OpenVPN app and also on Asus Router. All good...... I thought...... Issue is that I cannot access any of my local clients...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW5231E-Z)

    Thanks for the link to your thread !! You saved me having colourful language as the camera I have with the audio out isn't the easiest to get access. Looks like it isn't worth the time and tears ATM

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW5231E-Z)

    Has anyone hooked up to the audio out yet? My bullet been up a month or so now and I'm thinking of adding a speaker to the Audio out. Is it just a case of connecting a speaker to the phono jack on the camera harness or do I need to do a little more than that before I get the ladder out again

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Yeah did a little more research last night and the offerings are a little more limited with BT unless you have a separate fibre modem. Netgear R7000 looking a good option for my set up ATM

    Okay I finally got nap vpn up and running only to run into another issue. The router supplied by my isp which is good old BT here in the UK will not forward 1194 documented on the BT forums. 2 nights worth of work for nothing I know it would of probably taken nayr an hour but at least I got as...

    Yeah the 4108 does a good job, even the Easy4IP is I must say very easy to set up. It's just a security worry for my network that I wish to plug

    Im going to have to set up my own VPN using my Qnap openvpn app. Im a little confused on how it will manage incoming and out going traffic. Is it a case of all traffic to & from the ip of my NVR has a rule set to pass through VPN on my Qnap. Is it possible to remove or disable easy4ip to...

    Was planning on using my own ddns with Easy4IP but that doesn't appear to be an option? This seams to place more trust in Duhua security of Easy4IP than I would wish to. A bit of forum searching opened a whole web of vpn threads, none of which seamed easy to understand apart from the Asus...

    Yeah it must of been something like that as my second camera status turned green within a minute. I too set 3 accounts up when I initialised the NVR. Small steps ATM whilst I learn each section of the NVR. My next job is to set up my own dynds rather than use the default service within the NVR...
