I manage an apartment building at a different location. I hope this is not hijacking the the thread, my apologies if yes. I didn't think/know about repeater mode/bridging would make this problem before. Then used the client mode to connect to router 1, and everything works now perfectly, even with VPN. Use the DD-Wrt Router in Router Mode with own DHCP.Īll connected clients need to use this router as gateway to use the vpn.įirst I reset everything to default. Router1 needs a static route for 0.0.0.0 through the VPN.Ĭlients can have an advantage by having router2 as their gateway. Is it possible with a wireless setup or do I need to change it to cable?Īnd if so, which options needs to change? I know that the performance through wireless is worse than directly with cable. I think I could also connect them by cable, but wireless in this setup would be better. The packets will be transmitted over the wireless several times making bad throughput. Running VPN on a Repeater does not make any sense. If any more information is needed to fix that problem, please let me know! but my networking knowledge is really limited and I couldn't find a solution for that problem yet. I'm pretty sure it's a simple routing problem. So the VPN connection is established, but it's not being used as a tunnel for my traffic. However, when surfing my real IP address is used. I can connect through Router 2 to the internet (so repeater mode works) and the OpenVPN Status shows connected (my VPN provider AirVPN confirms this on their webpage). Router 2 (TP-Link TL-WR1043ND) using DD-WRT in repeater mode, connected to Router 1 and running OpenVPN to tunnel all traffic of connected clients
