So I have a home installed Linksys WRT 1900AC that has Open VPN installed as a part of the router GUI out of the box. I downloaded the OpenVPN client to install on a PC at work, I set up the router at home with access users and passwords. After saving, I have a create clientconfig.ovpn file link in the routers GUI to download to a thumb drive and to install by overwriting it to the default folder of the OpenVPN client on the PC at work.
Did all that and I can establish a connection to my router at home, however my intention was to use this VPN as a way to browse the internet freely at work unfortunately it says no internet connection. I was told that I have to edit my clientconfig.ovpn file with the following:
push "redirect-gateway def1"
I have used notepad to edit and add this file, but I have no idea where to position this edit. Mine looks like this:
client
dev tun
proto tcp
remote 107.145.0.44 1194
tun-mtu 6000
# fragment 0 can be used to improve performance in some instances but
# breaks compatibility with some Android apps
# fragment 0
mssfix 0
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ns-cert-type server
auth-user-pass
verb 3

I did look at that and unfortunately I'm not tech savvy enough to interpret the information. I'm not even sure I know where to look.
Anyone know where in the order this is supposed to be placed from my post above ? under the remote 107.145.0.44:1194 ??? Somewhere else ???

Tried adding the script to the clientconfig.ovpn in different several places several times and in every case the connection is no longer able to be established with the router.
Maybe because the clientconfig.ovpn file is created by my router and includes a very larger CA Hastag ? Maybe the file edit I try to make causes an authentication difference ?
