OpenVPN Can't be Good If It Disconnects All The Time

Skully317

I alright, so I'm running OpenVPN on a WindowsXP machine that is connected to a Technicolor Thomas TG508 modem. I download the client from openvpn.net along with the server files; which I uploaded in the client. It work nice for about a day or two, then its starting disconnecting every 30 minutes/1hour. I need to keep entering the login/password to reconnect.

Any possible SOLUTION? :o

post server logs...but you can't help me any further :o

Michael, I figured it out myself!

maikcat

the reason i asked you to post logs despite the fact that i cant help you due to AS version
is because this is a PUBLIC forum,

if you read general guidelines you will see that its good for you to post your config/logs ANYWAY...

glad you solved your problem yourself though.

Michael.

jjbungles

Any chance you can share how you fixed it? Or what was wrong?

This would be really helpful for those in the dark.

Thank you!
