Hi everyone, this is a bit of a weird one:
I just finished setting up an OpenVPN server on my Asus RT-AX55. I am also using noip as DNS server and everything works. I am able to connect to the VPN from my phone or any other device and browse my local network. Now, I did check the box for "lan AND internet" but on my phone if I open safari, it just won't work. What's funny is that internet is working though, because if I open whatsapp or Instagram for example, I am able to use those just fine. I did try opening Opera as well and it also doesn't work. I am testing this on iOS by the way. And to add a bit more context, my Asus router is connected to another root AP, which has the DDNS set up. I did do the port forward and in fact, everything seems to work correctly except for internet browsing.
That makes me feel like internet is indeed working but there has to be some misconfiguration somewhere not letting me browse the internet using a normal browser from the device I'm connecting from.
Any tip on how to troubleshoot? Thank you.
