iOS 16.6.1 work with Wi-fi only (not celluar)

Post by vental74 » Tue Oct 03, 2023 6:35 pm

Hello everyone!
I have a strange situation - OpenVPN client at all of my iOS devices work only with Wi-Fi connection. On celluar i have connect to my vpn server, but there isn't internet acsess.
I had same problem about half a year ago (on iOS 16.4) and find solution at this forum - get beta version by testflight app. It's worked correctly, but my "testing period" end, and i got iOS update to 16.6 and again got "celluar problem".
Honestly, I'm tired of constantly searching for fixes after every update iOS.
I know I'm not the only one having this problem. Please share solution of this!

Some update to this
Now, in settings -> Connect Via default set is "any network". It's great working with wi-fi connection, but if i get out of Wi-Fi and try to connect - connection successful but without internet access.
But i find way to resolve this
1) in settings -> Connect Via set "Cellular only"
2) Full turn off Wi-fi (not in Control Center, go to settings -> Wi-Fi -> disable)

The good news is that I found a temporary solution to this problem, but I would openvpn to work correctly without these actions.
I'm sure someone has encountered a similar situation, please let me know - any information would be helpful. Thanks
