Pankrakles Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Hi, recently purchased an XR500, and was trying to set up the OpenVPN server it is able to connect successfully but I am unable to access certain local resources (local web pages running on a local machine). Was wondering if this is an issue with the router, the server itself, or the OpenVPN configurations (either client or server). Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 4, 2020 Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2020 Hey, welcome to the forum! This is a Netgear specific feature so something you will probably be better off asking them via a ticket at - but have you selected the VPN Service option to allow all clients to access all sites on the internet and home network? If so have you tried changing this option to one of the 3 available to see if there is a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it is currently selected to access all sites on the internet and home network. Thanks, EDIT - While looking at the NETGEAR forums, I found this post could it possibly be the same issue? When I connect with OpenVPN I connect to 192.168.2.3 and my server I want to access is on 192.168.1.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Make sure that "all sites on the internet and home network" is selected on the VPN page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already is, is it possible any other settings are affecting this? I tried all three options with this and none solved the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 People in the past have experienced issues getting smart devices (such as lightbulbs) to talk to each other. This is something we're aware of, and Netgear is aware of, but unfortunately I think it's something that can only be fixed with a future software update.
