Model: Archer C7  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version:

Hi! I have run openvpn server on tplink archer c7 and client connect to this server without any problem. I need to give acces for all clients to local Lan which is runing on this router (192.168.1.1)

OpenVpn is runing at 10.8.0.0 and subnet 255.255.255.252
Client have ip 10.8.0.6 and need acces to machine on 192.168.1.10 (now he can only ping router ip 192.168.1.1)

 

I have add a static routing from client ip. 10.8.0.6 mask 255.255.255.252 and default gw 0.0.0.0 or 192.168.1.1 and nothing.

What exactly is the "machine on 192.168.1.10"?

 

In case it is a Windows PC with the standard firewall, then you need to allow incoming connections from the VPN through the firewall, since by default Windows' firewall only allows connections from local subnet for many of the services, which also includes "ping".

How about other devices, like phones, tablets or whatever you have connected to the C7? Can you ping any of them from the VPN client?

 

Normally it should work without making any additional settings on the router. Enabling the VPN server should be enough.
