Unable to connect to router via OpenVPN - Archer C1200
Hi,
I am trying to set up OpenVPN on my router so that I can access my home network/internet while on the go.
I set up DDNS using No-IP and setup OpenVPN. But every time I try to connect via the OpenVPN client from my Mac, PC or iPhone, I am met with the "connection timedout" error.
I cannot seem to figure out what I am doing wrong. Any help would be much appreciated!
TIA

Hello,
has there been resolution to fixing the UDP port for OpenVPN server in the router? TCP works fine but UDP does not
thanks

I Have a same problem but with mr-150 device. DDNS is setup via No-IP service. Router is successfully connected to No-IP. I see changes of IP, as well as successful login of router to No-IP. Time of router is setup correctly.
I followed the steps to set up OpenVPN. -> Generated certificate -> Enabled VPN server -> Exported file.
Then I imported ovpn file into my android device. But I can not to connect to the VPN server.
BTW I have another ovpn file to connect to my office.This connectiom works well.

I finally got this to work. In addition to turning on VPN Server as described, I needed to set up port forwarding on the cable modem (external TCP port 1194 on the modem to internal IP of the router (192.168...) and port 1194) so the router could be reached from external networks. After that, I needed to map the ports of the apps I wanted to use (in my case RDP 3389) under NAT forwarding - Virtual Servers on the TPLink router.
