Hello,

I have running Open VPN SSL server and have problem with the mobile client of OpenVPN. Sometimes it disconnects for no reason and an authorization error occurs.. Sometimes works ok for 2h.. Please tell me what could be reason. 

This is a business router but has less functions of openvpn ssl server like my old asus. I had no problem with it :( Photo below:

 

Thank You!

I found solution for my problem. Just increase number of concurrent users (despite using only one client).

When the client change network (AP or mobile) reconnection occurs, then router "thinking" this is new user and connection is blocked.

Hi, check this, you can use the SSL VPN with OpenVPN but you have to use TCP not UDP.

Thank You, i will try. I feel like a beta tester of firmware...

 

Edit:

Maybe you know where i can found the config file? On router (SSH) i can't find, it is on omada?

I'm not sure what config file you wanna find, but you can see the opvn. file on the controller if you are talking about the openvpn.

Offcourse i edited *.ovpn file in normal text editor. I don't understand what the script is for from link.

In my case i have problem only with mobile client on smartphone. When i'm walking (on work) he change AP and sometimes reconnect to mobile internet and then i have issue with "auth fail". Maybe firewall block a lot of connections.. I have no more ideas for it. If i don't find solution, i will have to run the server on docker.. sad.. but thank you for you help smiley

 

 

Dear TPlink team, where i can found the advanced openvpn configuration? Omada controller with this router model it has only few functions..
