Hello,

 

How do you set up the VPN on your network or on the C80? The Archer C80 doesn't support VPN client settings, it only offers a VPN server (OpenVPN and PPTP).  However, it will operate by default as VPN passthrough using IPSec, PPTP, or L2TP.  All you have to do is have the client software installed on the client devices and the VPN be based in one of the 3 mentioned protocols.  

 

It is suggested to contact the VPN admin to confirm if it requires any special settings.

 

Good days.

Since I installed the router, the remote desktop stopped working on both my pc and my cell phone

Hi, where is the VPN server, in your work office, or at home? Is this C80 installed at home, right?

I have the same issue, new C80, worked with my VPN straight away no problem, we had an NBN issue over the weekend, fixed today, now the VPN won't connect to my work. the VPN will connect via my phone USB no pobs. ISP spent hours trying to fix it, but getting nowhere. Can you help?

Can you please provide as many details as possible, then we will help analyze it?

 

What is the detailed network layout, how is the C80 connected to the network, and where is the VPN server?

 

What are the settings on the C80? Please ensure the cooresponding VPN passthrough had been enabled on the C80:
