Internet Crash

Post by ka1z0ku » Wed Feb 16, 2011 10:21 pm

Everytime I connect to any server after 5/10 minutes, OpenVPN crash the internet connection. It doesnt work anymore. If I disconnect from the server nothing changes. I have to reset the modem to get the connection back.
How can I solve this problem?

openvpn crashes the modem ? wow, I knew openvpn was a cool piece of software, but this is Waaaaay Cool :)

please tell us a bit more about your openvpn setup (and your router). With the current info it's impossible to tell what is going on.
If you're using
redirect-gateway
then try it without that option - does it still crash the router?

Is it possible this has something to do with your router's SPI algorithm? Perhaps it's not handling OpenVPN traffic very well and the buffer is overflowing. You might want to play around with the settings on your router, and perhaps disable SPI temporarily to see if the problem goes away.
