Bridged VPN, can my idea even work?
Posted: Thu Jun 22, 2023 5:48 pm
Hello together
I have a problem with setting up my VPN correctly.
First of all I am new here, if I am doing something wrong please let me know.
Also, English is not my first language, please forgive me if I express myself badly.
I have a working layer 3 VPN in tun mode.
However, it does not meet my requirements.
About my problem.
I have a LTE router, this should be used as OVPN client.
I have several devices connected to this router via LAN.
On one device a UDP broadcast is running. With this device I want to connect to my Windows laptop and this independent of range. So not in the WLAN of the LTE router. In my current VPN configuration I have a ping from the laptop to the device in the LAN of the LTE router, but the UDP broadcast does not work. For this I need the OVPN in tap mode right?
The Windows laptop, if possible several should be able to connect at the same time, is not connected to a router but has mostly via a cell phone hotspot Internet.
My OVPN server runs on my Debian11 server with public IP.
Is this possible and if so could someone help me, I have not found anything on the internet.
I would be very happy about an answer
Jonas
