Could you elaborate on this conclusion? What constitutes "special routing" and how does what I want to do violate what OpenVPN can do?

Re: Routing Specific IP over OpenVPN

Thanks a bunch for the picture you drew. In my case I am trying to route in the opposite direction. That is from the server through the client to the client's ISP. https://i.imgur.com/xsNXLCS.png In my case I think only the OpenVPN server needs a route change since the connection initiates from ther...

Re: Routing Specific IP over OpenVPN

I really do appreciate you helping me with this issue. Thanks for the investigation. Lots of good screen shots there. I just need a way to duplicate your results I think. 1) I cannot find any config file on the openvpn client. You show one. Where can I find this? 2) When making changes in any config...

I want to route through the openvpn client. How does adding a route to the openvpn server help? Am I missing something?

Re: Routing Specific IP over OpenVPN

The source is any machine on the OpenVPN router2 LAN. These addresses are 192.168.2.x. I want traffic to this one public IP to route through the VPN to the other router1 (the VPN client). I tried your suggestion. The router table on router2 is modified to be pretty much what I had previously had but...

Re: TP-Link WR1043N v5

Your router is not supported. You should return it to Amazon.

Look for the router you want on EBay. Also in the store on this site (which unfortunately is currently sold out).

Re: Default QoS Rules Contest

I have read the ideas of adding a rule for smaller packets. It is reported that systems with such rules are "more responsive" or give better scores on "bufferbloat" tests. But it seems rather subjective to me with no quantitative explanation about why this would be the case. I wr...
