A member of family has moved over to the middle east, and many internet features are blocked by the ISP (country only has one ISP) - the biggest issue is that Skype is blocked, and basic browsing of certain normal sites (BBC etc) are also blocked.
So i have setup openvpn on my etrayz server and am using static keys to connect as I only require one client to connect.
So my member of family is running openvpn gui on a windows 7 machine, and the icon in the taskbar indicates that all is working well... however when they open their internet browser, sites are still bocked by the ISP? shouldn't the internet traffic be routing through my open vpn server here in europe?
When I went out there a few weeks back i used a commercial VPN solution for a few days to just access my webmail, so I know it can be done! I do not want to have recommend a commercial solution as I have everything I need get this working.
Any help on the matter is greatly appreciated.
