Hello folks, I am a newbie in VPN and it is my first time to set u my own VPN server.
I will be going abroad and I need access to few webpages that are closed for foreign IP addresses so I was thinking I can just set up a VPN server on my R7000 router and access it directly from my Android phone and get my home UP address so I can access these webpages when abroad.
I enabled VPN service in the admin page and I downloaded the Android package. I transferred the files on my phone and I imported the profile. But the connection is never successful, it never manages to connect. In the log I see it tries to connect to 192.168.0.1 which is my local access IP to access my router on the network. It doesn't seem correct. There are no options to change in the admin panel on the router.
I also have an old WRT-54GL router with DD-WRT on it, would that one would be easier to set up and just plug in the R7000 and disable wireless?
Thank you in advance

A $200 router and it does not work .. I would report the problem to Netgear.

Finally made it to work.
Problem was the modem, I switched the modem from router mode to modem only mode and after rebooting everything few times it works!
