Capsos Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Hi Guys and Gals, Ive recently set a OpenVPN on my home server running Ubuntu Server. I have managed to set it up to a point where i can connect to it via my laptop and phone whilst on and off the network, HOWEVER i have no internet coming through !!! Any ideas or help would be great. Thanxs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Can you ping 8.8.8.8 over the connection? If so, it's a DNS issue. If you can't, it's a routing issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The VPN server is running on my home server (Ubuntu) and have connected but not working a android phone and a laptop on Windows 7 Edited January 12, 2018 by Capsos Missed information out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
