Getting this to work.

doclobster

I'm going to apologize in advance for my lack of technical skills - but I'm a quick learner.

I have installed OpenVPN and, according to my green lights, I am connected.

I live in Canada and only purchased this in hopes that it would let me use services like hulu and maybe purchase music from Amazon. They both still recognize me as from being out of country.

I have: disabled windows (7) firewall, shut off my Avast antivirus, removed my router (I originally thought it might be a configuration issue with the router but it has made no difference), shut off my ACN.

Now, I see that posting client and server listings seem to be important but do not know how to do this - please advise and will be happy to do it.

From my standpoint, short of getting a static IP address and posting it for the world, I'm not sure how to make my computer less secure.

Sorry to be such a newbie but your help will be appreciated.

I'd recommend using PasteBin http://pastebin.com/ for your config files.
Posting your exact IP address on paste bin probably isn't the best idea, I recommend removing the last digits and replacing them with x's...
IE, my IP address is 50.135.217.xxx

Other than that, look through your config files before you paste them, and edit anything that you don't want the world to see. If you do remove something, make sure you explicitly call it out.

Ok - got this working on my computer. Next step is to get it working through my router so all computers on it can use it. I'm sure there must be a quick setting or switch. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Well, without knowing what kind of router you have, not a whole lot I can recommend...

hello

Sorry for the slow return - I have a Netgear WNR3500L.

I have installed the WW-DRT flash and then came to a crash. My techie go to guy says he needs the config script to make it work. I'm assuming that is what the person above was suggesting to use Pastebin for - but I'm not sure how to find it there either.

A point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

I should note that I DO have openvpn working just fine on my computer now and am attempting to configure my router so that I can use it wirelessly throughout the house. That is what I need the config script for.

I also have the same problem here. I can't enable wireless connectivity in my router. 🙁

doclobster, did you verified that your router is working with DD-WRT system? Did you follow the exact steps to reflash the router?

Configuring wireless on the router is out of scope for this forum. You'll find quicker answers for this on DD-WRT forum.
