One client keeps getting timeout error

Post by mafiaboy01 » Sun Oct 21, 2018 7:00 pm

I'm trying to connect a computer to my Asus ac87 using OpenVPN but running into some issues. One of my computers keeps disconnecting form the VPN connection giving me error:

Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting

It'll connected for about 30 seconds then lose connection.

I've tested on another computer on the same network and it has no issues keeping a connection with the same settings. The client is running on a Windows Server 2012r2 machine. I feel like its maybe a problem with the TAP adapter but I'm not sure.

Client settings

Code: Select all

client
dev tap
# Windows needs the TAP-Win32 adapter name
# from the Network Connections panel
# if you have more than one.  On XP SP2,
# you may need to disable the firewall
# for the TAP adapter.
;dev-node MyTap
proto udp
remote xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1194
float
ncp-ciphers AES-128-GCM:AES-256-GCM:AES-128-CBC:AES-256-CBC
cipher AES-128-CBC
auth SHA1
comp-lzo adaptive
keepalive 15 60
auth-user-pass
remote-cert-tls server
<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
verb 4
The computer is running Windows Server 2012R2, I've tried turning the firewall on and off but nothing seems to make any difference.

Here are the logs

At first I was able to. In that 30sec window while the connection held up I would continue to ping until it dropped. I've messed around with it since and now I can't seem to ping it at all. But my other client has no issues.

Sounds to me like some hardware problem at this client only.

You can try higher --verb value (maybe 7) to see if anything is reported (unlikely)
and a lower --ping (like 5) IE. --keepalive 5 60

Its possible, I can put in another NIC and see if that works better. I find that the TAP Adapter responds very slowly, for example when I try and disconnect it takes a long time for it to become available again.

That sounds quite unusual .. maybe something with anti-virus ?

I've tried disabling the antivirus(Sophos Endpoint Security and Control) and the Windows Firewall neither seems to make any difference.

Request timed out.
It says connected for a bit but then drops out. I've tried connecting the client to another vpn server and it has the same issue so it's definitely something on the client.

Solved the problem. I was using the latest version of OpenVPN 2.4.6 with Tap Adapter 9.21.2. I downgraded the Tap Adapter to version 9.9.2 and now I have a stable connecting with no drops.

Possibly a compatibility issue with Tap Adapter 9.21.2 and Windows Server 2012r2?

It is good that you have isolated what is a possible cause ..

It is also interesting that the older TAP driver works better in your case than the new driver.

Is it possible for you to try a VPN between two Windows machines in order to compare the results to connecting to your router ?

I have been informed that TAP version 9.9.2 is NDIS5 and Windows 2012 does not support NDIS5.

So, I don't know what you have actually done but I don't think you have what you are expecting.

Hmm, the VPN connection has been holding strong for a week now and I've transferred over 100gb over it with no problems.

The setup is my router at my condo is running the server. The Windows Server 2012r2 PC is at my parents house and is VPNing into my network so I can backup my computers to it.

Which means .. you do not have the version of TAP installed that you think you do.

I'll double check in device manager and see what version it's showing there. It's really odd that it's working lol.
