New to Blue Iris and I've figured out a lot of the other issues so far.
Managed to get my CPU usage down to 20% from 97%. 11% as a service.
running the sub-streams since these are 4k cameras really helped.
I have everything triggering and storing properly now so I'm pretty happy.

Now... I would like to use the mobile app and I've hit a wall for myself.

Edit: I'm up and running on port 81, local and Wan.
I would still like to move over to the VPN but still can't figure out the errors I'm getting
on the OpenVPN GUI. Or should I just try NGROK?

so far/details:
All cameras are on a separate LAN port with a different IP scheme
the network LAN port is set to a static IP
I left the v9 VPN port on DHCP(walkthrough didn't say to change it only the name, walkthrough I used below)
The mobile app pulls the camera network IP instead of the main static IP for (LAN), also it pulls the VPN IP for (WAN)
Have tried combinations but nothing allowed me to connect, what should I be using, and where?
since it pulls the camera network IP I don't know the port of the main static IP. do I still need to open a port in the firewall and router?
keeps coming back "User/pass not found" not sure if I'm supposed to use the user/pass for the computer, router, or something different?
I'm waiting for the cooldown to end on the app so I can try some more.


I have a Netgear R7000, followed a walkthrough on how to install it on Ytube(of course lol)

I try to start the OpenVPN GUI and I see a couple of errors:
no server certification method has been enabled
TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed
TLS Error: TLS handshake failed


I feel I have a couple of issues I'm just trying to figure out or get some direction while I wait.

I'd appreciate any help, JR
