TL-ER604W - VPN through dual NAT
Model : TL-ER604W
Hardware Version : v1.0
Firmware Version : 1.1.0 Build 20141031 Rel.32628s
ISP : Bredbånd Nord (Broadband North) (local danish fiber provider)
Hi guys, really hope you can help me.
I need to setup a VPN-connection ( L2TP/IPsec protocol) from a few Clients to my LAN that's behind a TL-ER604W (with the latest firmware) AND my ISP's Modem/Router ( ICOTERA IGW3000).
Through that VPN-connection clients should be able to access everything on the LAN and be able to access the internet (via the TL-ER604W / IGW3000)
So yes - Dual NAT :eek: .
My ISP's Modem/Router [i]cannot[/i] be put into Bridge Mode since it has some custom made firmware installed (by my ISP).
It does however have the option to place an IP-range into DMZ.
So that's what I did - I placed my TP-Link in DMZ.
Everything seams to work just fine - Except a VPN-connection.. I just can't get it to work.
Do I need to open ports on the TP-Link??
Can any of you guys please tell me EXACTLY what to do to get a L2TP/IPsec VPN-connection up and running??
Here's a map of my current network (hope it helps).
The VPN-part of the above is what I would like to achieve.
"Bonus info".
From my web browser:
73.XX.XX.XX and 192.168.1.1 sends me to my ISP's Modem/Router Admin log-in page.
192.168.1.2 and 10.0.0.1 sends me to the TP-Link Router Admin log-in page.
I'd very much like to keep the 10.0.0.0/24 range on my LAN.
Very kind regards

My "IGW3000" gave up a few weeks ago :mad: - I now have a fiber modem in front of my TL-ER604W - No more "DMZ" - No more "DUAL NAT" :cool::cool::cool:
