Hi StephenB
My engineer is not able to ping to Jetson Orin Nano machine in my network even though the VPN service is running and configured below. He is on VPN client. I can see in the logs
[OpenVPN, connection successfully] from remote IP address:196.217.135.174 Monday, Jan 19,2026 15:15:44
However he is still not able to ping the Jetson or another Linux in my network. You told me last time that I should not use 22/23 and I should switch to UDP for performance reasons. Are they related to the Ping (Request timedout) issue?
Thank you,
Mustafa

Could be. I think the question is whether you actually have a functional connection to your home network. Also, if you are using TUN, then I suggest trying TAP.
Can he ping any devices on the network?
Also, is he using a remote network?
