Windows 7 computer connects to OpenVPN but no internet
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2020 1:03 pm
Hello, I have setup an OpenVPN server on my Linksys router. I had some issues with getting it to work on my Android phone but finally got the config file to allow internet on the phone. If i check my IP with my phone it will tell me my home's IP address away from home while i'm connected. Using the same config file on my laptop i don't get the same results. I feel like I have something configured wrong but not sure why it works on my phone and not my laptop. I am using the OpenVPN Connect app on my phone and the OpenVPN Connect program on my computer. Any help would be appreciated. The config file that I am using for my phone and laptop is posted below.
