Novice Windows and iOS Setup

Post by needallthehelp » Tue Mar 07, 2017 8:05 pm

I decided to give this a try, so I can stop beating my head on a wall. My setup is:
Server: Windows 10 (Home)
Client1: Windows 10 (Work)
Client2: iPad (Work)

First, I followed the HOWTO guide and successfully created a TAP interface VPN. Client1 was talking to the server, and it was happy. Then, I connected Client2 and iOS politely gave me the finger. It doesn't like TAP. Ok, I will try a TUN interface. Both clients connect, but no one is happy. I can't ping anything. I decide to make it where the clients web traffic will flow through my server, but that just makes it even more mad. Being new to VPN's does not help my current lack of progress. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry, I realized this is in the wrong section.
