Hello everyone

I'm new to all this VPN thing and trying to make my first server with DD-WRT, but for some reason (followed the wiki and all the tutorials I could find on internet, no success...) I can only connect to my LAN, but the WAN isn't shared over the VPN.

Bellow my settings on the VPN tab:

-------------------

PPTP Server

PPTP Server: Enable

Broadcast support: Disable

MPPE Encryption: Enable

DNS1
192.168.1.1

DNS2

WINS1

WINS2

MTU
1436
(Default: 1436)

MRU
1436
(Default: 1436)

Server IP
192.168.1.2

Client IP(s)
192.168.10.180-190

Max Associated Clients
64
(Default: 64)

Authentication: Local User Management (CHAP Secrets)

--------------------

The router default gateway is 192.168.1.1 and my DHCP range is 192.168.1.100-129.

I have DDNS already set up.

Tried 8.8.8.8 on the DNS field but then I lose even the LAN connection.

I think I'm missing something really stupid here, but I'm too noob to notice.

Any input will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You have to enable NAT from the VPN sub-net.

Try this in the Firewall:

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -o `get_wanface` -j MASQUERADE

Hi

I have an interesting similar question. I have two DD WRT routers connected via a VPN. The "HQ" my house, 10.0.1.0 is acting as a VPN server, and the remote "My Mums" 192.168.1.0 is acting as the client.

The is the case as she is behind another router (to which I have no access) and needs to initiate the VPN connection.

When I am at my mums I can access HQ no problem, say 10.0.1.14.

But when I am at HQ I can not access say 192.168.1.14.

Any suggestions please the WAN port is set up as the VPN at my mums.

THANKS in advance. William

You better start a new thread and give more information, e.g. what routers, what builds, what kind of VPN.
Read up on TAP versus TUN, read up on firewall (because that is what blocking you)
