OpenVPN client does not work
Posted: Mon Jul 25, 2016 2:08 pm
I've got a router with OpenVPN server in the remote site (my parent's house), and a WNDR3700V2 with Gargoyle 1.8.1 at local site (my home).
Remote router supports both TUN and TAP.
TUN is listening on port 12973
TAP is listening on port 12974
By using OpenVPN client on my PC (TAP), I can safely log in to the remote router, so config is fine.
I know that Gargoyle does not support TAP, so I'm trying to configure TUN clien... In OpenVPN client config folder I've got 4 files:
ca.crt
client.crt
client.key
client.ovpn (* - see below)
I don't need to enter any password: auth is granted only via certificate.
When I try to upload the files to Gargoyle router in local site, I get "Please Wait While Settings Are Applied" and it stays there forever.
Here follows content of client.ovpn file
In case it's needed, here follows the config file for TAP:
