WIFI routing problem
Posted: Wed Aug 28, 2013 10:48 am
Hello all,
I have OpenVPN Connect 1.0.1 working fine on iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4, but there is one problem that occurs "sometimes" (sorry but I cannot describe it better, thank you for your patience).
I use an OpenVPN tcp server configuration which pushes a route to my internal company network:
The server address is in a different network, like:
All works fine until I enter my company building so that the WIFI connects. At that moment, the iPhone is assigned an address covered by the route pushed by the OpenVPN server. As a consequence, OpenVPN Connect on the iPhone gets a connection timeout and stops the connection. The OpenVPN Connect client log stops with the message "EVENT: DISCONNECT_PENDING".
Now what "sometimes" happens is that the iPhone no longer has network connectivity at all, that is, the "WIFI connected" symbol is displayed but Safari or Email no longer work (activity wheel spins forever).
To cure that I need to disable and re-enable WIFI or enter and leave flight mode or do a warm reboot.
Also, when leaving the company building OpenVPN does not automatically reconnect.
Does somebody here know a solution?
Here is my OpenVPN Connect client configuration on the iPhone:
Thank you very much for your help!
