RBR50 as VPN server behind Cisco ECP3925
Hello, I need a little bit of help here: I have an Orbi RBR50 (fw vV2.3.5.30) connected to a router/model Cisco EPC3925. I would like to connect from Internet using a VPN client to my Orbi system se...
I see an issue: With the Cisco acting as a router, the Orbi "public" (WAN side) IP is actually a private IP assigned by the Cisco routerThe way DDNS works is that whenever the home router detects that the ISP has assigned a different public IP address, it contacts No-IP.com and updates the database to the new one.. My guess is when you look on No-IP.com, it will not show the Cisco IP public IP address, which is what is needed to find your home on the internet.
The obvious way to set up VPN on the Orbi is to put the Cisco into "bridge" or "passthrough" mode, so that the public IP address assigned by the ISP is given to the Orbi.
Or, it could be that there is a VPN solution that can be implemented on the Cisco. (Have no clue yes or no.)
