Hi all, I'm new to the forum and to ovpn. I have a problem that's driving me nuts.
I am using a VoIP service from my home office that requires an ovpn connection, this because i don't have a static ip address.
The VoIP service provider have me the ovpn file.
The vpn is working fine on my windows desktop and laptop and on the hard phone I have. However, I have 3 android devices
1. Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - unrooted running standard software and os Android 4.4.2
2. Samsung Galaxy Note 1 - Rooted ruining 3rd party rom.
3 Samsung Galaxy Tab S - unrooted 1 above.
These three android devices all connect to the vpn fine, they also run and connect/login with my softphone app fine, But, i can't access anything else on the network/Internet. Browsing times out, no access to email etc.
I have tested these on my isp connection (talktalk) using 2 different routers and my father in laws BT isp connection and they all show the same symptoms on all connections. The VoIP company have tested with their android devices and all works fine for them.
Today, i took my devices to the VoIP providers office and tested my devices alongside theirs. Theirs all works fine but mine still wouldn't connect to the Internet. This running the same ovpn file on all devices, all devices connected to the same Wi Fi connection.
My conclusion, there has to be something about my android devices that is different top the others. The only thing common is that they are all Samsung Galaxy's of one sort or another. Other manufacturers devices seem top work Ok, as do non Galaxy Samsung devices.
I'm not sure what top do next, apart from trying to get a non samsung device and trying that.
Anyone any ideas?
Or had anyone else experienced this and found a cure?
I dint particularly want to root my note 3 or Tab S as they are under guarantee And the others I've tested alongside aren't rooted so i guess it shouldn't be nedeed anyway.
Any help greatly appreciated.
