How to connect to OpenVPN as a client direct from router config OpeVPN tab
3462 16 2023-8-23 02:14:23
Original
Model: RG-EW1800GX PRO

Task: Connect to a OpenVPN as a client without installing the desktop app (connecting directly from the router)

Service Mode: Certificate

Upload a client config .ovpn file

Hit Save button

Result: not connected

Should I need to refresh config/restart the router? or something else? I'm missing a connect button or a more explicit way to connect

(Both, upload and Save operations say successful, also tested the certificate in the desktop app and connect without problems)

I suppose it's a problem with config uploading&saving. I have the same problem as you if you trying to connect as a client. Tried multiple times by upload>save>restart for different service types. Nothing..
Before that i uploaded a config now look what happens:

Dear Alexander:

Dear sir

Sorry for making you any inconvenience. May I know your open VPN server device? Please help check whether the VPN server is using public ip address and the corresponding port of Open VPN:  UDP1194 has been allowed to pass through the network so that the VPN connection can be established successfully.

Can you try to configure open VPN for the routers via this guide on page 88 to try again: https://www.ruijienetworks.com/resources/preview/ruijie-reyee-mesh-routers-web-based-configuration-guide



If the problem still exists, could you help show me the router OPEN VPN configuration and capture the packets on the router to further check this issue? Thank you for your cooperation.


Best regards
Jenny

E5 Model.
As described from above:
Task: Connect to a OpenVPN as a client without installing the desktop app (connecting directly from the router)

Service Mode: Certificate

Upload a client config .ovpn file

Hit Save button

Result: not connected

Restart: does nothing
(Both, upload and Save operations say successful, also tested the certificate in the desktop app and connect without problems)

Same history.

I wrote the device but you decided to delete my post.

Dear sir

Could you help try the account service mode instead of certificate service mode here to test again?



If it still can not work, it is better that you can help share with me  the router open vpn configuration details and help capture the packets on the router to further check this issue. Thank you for your cooperation.
