I have installed OpenVPN Connect version 3.2.5 in my phone.
Imported all necesary things and saved a profile.
I can successfully connect, but I have no traffic along this VPN tunnel.
What I'm doing wrong ? Why OpenVPN route it's not added to my android 10 phone after connection.
Server it's having this IP 10.8.0.1....I should be able to PING the server at least.
IMPORTANT NOTE: please keep in mind that connecting from a remote Windows machine to this server WORKS and traffic it's routed trough OpenVPN
Connected but no traffic

Re: Connected but no traffic
I'm coming back to this thread....the problem was a setting that was enabled in the server but not in client-side ovpn file.
In order to solve it, I added this to client config:

Re: Connected but no traffic
And now you have a less secure VPN.
Remove all compression setting from both server and client.

Re: Connected but no traffic
Oh thank you thank you thank you! I've been battling this issue off and on for months. I've been on a wild goose chase going after network routing issues, because it couldn't find any of my subnets. There should really be an error message or better recovery if the server and client compressions don't match. Just having it connect, but have nothing work, makes it really tough to hunt this down. Thank you for posting this. I would have never guess compression was the issue.
