I am new to OpenVPN attracted to the secure web surfing at the public wireless network.
I do not have any idea about networking and might be asking some silly question, but I need your kind help.
Here is my problem :
Whenever I apply "redirect-gateway" option, my computer is disconnected from network.
To be specific, my computer cannot resolve domain names at all.
I disabled both iptables on the server side and Windows Firewall on the client side.
I applied push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8" option to set DNS server manually.
I followed Windows 7 OpenVPN server setting written by Bebop in this forum.
However, nothing helped me resolve this problem.
Here are my settings.
