Hello. Guys, I have a client on the samsung s8 + smartphone. and the server on the router, and a couple of computers that are connected to the vpn server (there are no problems with them, openvpn is used). In this list I have a problem only with openvpn connect. I use 2 networks, wan and lan. Within the wifi network, I connect to the lan, and outside of the network coverage I use wan (this is a symbol, I have the keys so simple) And I switch constantly. But the whole problem is that you can not connect at all to anything if the connection was incorrectly completed (for example, I was at home, used wifi and went out to make snowmen, the connection is disconnected and the subsequent connection can not be made without restarting the smartphone)
how to solve the problem? every time to reboot the device is not very convenient.

Got it to work & think found possible cause.
My smartphone already has another VPN installed, for internet browsing only. This has either blocked or prevented something from being initialized.
So I manually added a generic VPN to my phone & it forced existing VPN to stop in the background. And now I'm able to connect to server with my smartphone using OpenVPN Connect. This is despite fact that I had previously turned other VPN off.
