Archer VR600 and incorrect privet public IP
Hi i hope i get an answer to my inquiry :)
i have VR600 it chages my ISP public IP to somthing diffirent and by this change OpenVPN dose not work when calling it from ISP IP
for example if my ISP public IP is 140.226.165.72 when i login into my router it change it to 100.65.25.200 for some strange reason and by this change OpenVPN dose not work on external public ISP IP 140.226.165.72 however it will works on internal prive IP using 100.65.25.200
its really butting me down and i really waht to have OpenVPN to work

This sounds most un-usual as that IP that you mentioned it chagned to 100.x.x. appear, well unusal :)
Would you be able to uplaod a few screenshots fo what you are seeing? namely an image from the router showing hte WAN address and then something from the internet using whats my IP and we can take a look for you
Also where are you terminating your OPEN VPN? Have you an internal server that requires port forwarding?

Ok this makes a bit more sense now
Think I know what is going on but havent seen this in years! This looks to be a case of Double NAT by your ISP, namely 141.226.x.x address is your ISPs external address (hence why it doenst change) and your individual address is the 100.x.x.x is the one your ISP has specifically assigned to you
You wont get any connection throught the 141 address as this will just NAT you to the 100. address, if you try to connect to 141 address it will drop the connection as it wont know where to NAT the reqest too. Long story short, take the 100 to be your WAN address
Have you setup any VPN on the router yet? You shouldnt need to do any NAT if you use the 100.x.x.x address

@Philbert Man your are da best thank you for the info , so there is no way to call the external ISP IP 144.xxx i guess i have to stick to 100.XXX. IP assiged to me by ISP
now for VPN i have setup OpenVPN setup on VR600 router fuction and it works if i connect via TCP IP 100.xxx. on my local LAN however it dose not work from external internet because setup is using 100.xxx IP and even thought using DDNS it dose not wotk for the same reason external ISP IP, and i'm not using any NAT for VPN, any idea how can i get this to work? should i change ISP maybe to solve my issue?
Thank you once more

Hey
When setting up the OPen VPN did you select Internet and LAN?
Also you may need to open the VPN Profile and check your IP.. as show below in bold. Import this into an Open VPN on ur mobile adn give it a whirl
persist-tun
verb 3
remote 10x.xxx.xxx.xxx 1194
<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
And lastly.. yeah its unusual for your ISP to setup that way, you could try calling them to make sure its ok their side.

Looks good... Just pointing out you have a 10.x.x.x subnet on your VPN... might be better setting this to 192.168.x.x closer to your LAN IP range..
Say LAN is 192.168.1.x VPN 192.168.2.x
