Because via VPN, I can't access DSM using the public domain name. I use OpenVPN server on my RT2600ac router via the VPN Plus Server package. From the internet, access is blocked by the access control profile, because I see the DSM's block screen.īut the problem is when I am connected via VPN. If I am connected in my local network, everything works fine and I can access DSM via its public domain name. So points to my public IP too, even though access control profile allows only access from internal addresses and my one public IP (+IPv6 address space which should not be necessary at all, because it is not used for the public domain names). Some services, for example DSM, are not publicly available, but have public domain name pointing to the public IP (to be able to get a Let's Encrypt certificate for the domains on the NAS). All public packages use reverse proxy publicly on 443.
I can access the services that are publicly available, for example Drive via. I have a domain name with a few subdomains that I use for some services running on the router and NAS. And behind the router, I have a DS218 (with DSM 7) with forwarded ports 443, 80, 6690. If it does, and you don’t want to use that particular protocol, you may have to do some digging to find out what is blocking your connection.I have a RT2600ac router with public static IPv4. If changing the protocol you are using to connect to your VPN is an option, try selecting a different connection method to see if that works.

Windows 10 can have some weird interactions with certain protocols, particularly older ones. If disabling IPv6 in Windows allows you to connect to your VPN, consider disabling IPv6 through the application you used to connect to your VPN instead. Note that disabling IPv6 can sometimes cause Windows 10 services to malfunction. Right-click its icon, then click on “Properties.” In the Networking tab, scroll down until you see Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP /IPv6) and uncheck the box next to it. Click change adapter, then find the network device you are using to connect to the VPN. To disable IPv6, open your Windows 10 control panel and find the Windows Network control panel by clicking on Network and Sharing Center. As an example, the OpenVPN protocol uses port 1194. You can force these ports to open by enabling port forwarding in your router settings and then setting access control for the selected port. Second, check to ensure your router’s hardware firewall isn’t blocking the ports your tunneling protocol uses. Some models may not have these options present, or they’ll be buried among other settings. The first thing you’ll want to do is make sure any settings related to VPN service are turned on. Changing these settings will vary depending on who made your router, and you’ll want to check the manufacturer’s documentation if changing these settings isn’t intuitive or readily apparent.
Check with your router’s manufacturer to make sure your router is VPN compatible. Some older models may not have this feature. Most routers made in the last decade are “VPN friendly” and will allow you to connect to the internet through a tunneling protocol. Verify that your router is VPN compatible and that any VPN related settings are configured correctly If it’s not, you may need to try resetting your router, your computer, or verifying your connection settings in the Windows Networking control panel.Īlso Read: Tips to Secure Your Router & Wi-Fi Network in Minutesģ. Typing ping followed by the gateway address will let you know if your network card communicates properly with your router. This will vary depending on router make, model, and configuration, but will usually be 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1. Next, in the same command window, ping your router’s gateway address.

If your ping requests time out, you’ll need to update your network card’s drivers, or you may need to reinstall or replace the card. If you get a few lines that begin with “Reply from…” it means your network card is working properly. This will ping your network card’s loopback address, which is used to verify that your network card is working properly. Open a command prompt by hitting your Windows key and your R key simultaneously on your keyboard, then type cmd.exe and hit enter. Assuming everything looks in order on the hardware level, you can also start checking things individually between your computer, your network card, and your router.
