Model : TL-R600VPN

Hardware Version : V2

Firmware Version :

Hello,

we have the VPN set up and working well on a 192.168.100.X / 24 subnet.

We have UDP Broadcast traffic (192.168.100.255) that we would like to *also* access over VPN.

Currently the TL-R600VPN blocks this by default, and we cannot find a method to enable pass-through of broadcast (or multicast (224.0.0.1)) traffic.

Is it possible to configure TL-R600VPN to allow this LAN traffic to pass through to VPN ?

I've looked through forums and documentation -did not see an answer. if it exists, please send the link.

Thank you !

Alex

Just heard back from TPLink support over email:

I am so sorry the TL-R600VPN blocks UDP Broadcast traffic by default. so we cannot enable it.

unfortunate, as we have this at 3 sites !

looks like we will be looking for a different VPN router...
