Hello All,

First of all, great performance on the TP-Link C3150 router, finally utilizing the full 1 Gb fiber WAN.

However I have a problem accessing my Synology NAS on my LAN over OpenVPN
My OpenVPN is running OK over UDP. I can access other servers over port 80.

However mapping a network share (SAMBA) from Windows 10 or Android Phone over OpenVPN does not work. It can not find the server, even with the W10 firewall disabled.
I assume it is a routing issue or similar.
My OpenVPN network is on 10.3.5.0 and my LAN is on 10.3.4.0

Previously on my old Netgear router I did had OpenVPN running on OpenWRT. No problem connecting to SAMBA share. But obviously with far less performance over LAN-WAN bandwidth.

But the OpenWRT firmware is way more flexible then the simplified OpenVPN configuration that TP-Link offers. That seems to be so simplified that even a monkey can get it running.

Accessing the router over SSH is not working.

Does anybody have any idea to solve this?


Best Regards,

$Bill

Maybe encrypted issue? I used to know that their router didn't support encrypted VPN. If your NAS requires encrypted connection or not?

@adan123

Thanks for your response but I do not use encryption on my NAS.

I will try to go through customer support.
