OpenVPN Not Working From One Location

IceBoy

I have OpenVPN servers setup on Netgear Routers -- one at my house, one at my parent's house.

When I'm at a library, coffee shop, school, etc. I am able to connect through either server without a hitch. However, when I'm at my house and try and connect to my parent's location it says it's connected (and I get the green icon in taskbar) but the IP address doesn't change and I can't access local resources.

I'm still really new to this so I'm sure this is symptomatic of something obvious that I"m overlooking, but any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Pippin

Sounds like IP address conflict.
Is your parent`s subnet the same as yours?

IceBoy

Their IP subnet mask address listed in their router settings is different than my own.

IceBoy

Tried adjusting MTU size on both routers to 1492 as per the suggestion of a related thread I had found. No difference.

Can you post your client log at --verb 4 at least ? (remove private data)

IceBoy

This may seem a stupid question, but how do I go about posting a log and making sure private data is removed? I deleted the current log file, then reconnected to create a new log file, and then I just went through it manually and plucked out the server IP address wherever I saw it. I assume --verb 4 is some sort of command to do this for me? I'm running Windows 10. Thanks!

See --log & --verb in The Manual v24x

Also, fwiw, after switching everything to TCP i can connect and have my IP address reflect the connection, but no access to local resources.

No --ifconfig parameter .. what IP address does your TAP adapter use ?

No --ifconfig parameter .. what IP address does your TAP adapter use ?

Not sure about this...when I check TAP adapter IPv4 properties it just says it obtains an IP address automatically.

TinCanTech

So your are using advanced networking techniques, like DHCP-proxy mode, but you do not know how to find the IP address of your TAP adapter ?

IceBoy

Sorry for my lack of knowledge/experience with this sort of thing. Everything regarding setup for the servers and clients I've done is based on what the Netgear website and tutorials say to do to get things up and running. I don't pretend to be an expert and admit that most of this stuff is over my head. All i do know is that when I'm not at home and I'm at a school or public wifi network everything works as it should when I connect to either router's VPN service -- just not from my home to my parent's.

Thank you for the humble pie.

IceBoy wroteI have OpenVPN servers setup on Netgear Routers -- one at my house, one at my parent's house.

When I'm at a library, coffee shop, school, etc. I am able to connect through either server without a hitch. However, when I'm at my house and try and connect to my parent's location it says it's connected (and I get the green icon in taskbar) but the IP address doesn't change and I can't access local resources.

Pippin wroteSounds like IP address conflict.
Is your parent`s subnet the same as yours?

IceBoy wroteTheir IP subnet mask address listed in their router settings is different than my own

IceBoy wroteNot sure about this...when I check TAP adapter IPv4 properties it just says it obtains an IP address automatically.

Please post full details ..

IceBoy

... are you asking for another log file or pointing out that I need to be more thorough in my responses?

TinCanTech

Perhaps these will help ..
