VPN ip address change
Hello. I have two systems RBRE960 and RBR850. Both activated VPN service. The problem is that they both have save VPN IP/subnet 192.168.254.1, so I could not connect to both of them at the same time...

Ok, then seems that 192.168.254.x is hard coded in Orbi.
Previously when the CLI interface (telnet was open in Orbi we could easily change this, but unfortunately now I don’t think there is anything we can do.

What parameter would one set using a command line interface (telnet) to manage the IP subnet assigned to VPN connections?

A puzzle. I do not find a parameter openvpn_tun_ipaddr

.... Or, am I just not looking for it correctly?
- ekhalilSep 11, 2022MasterYes, this is only in AX models. In the AC models VPN don’t give the 192.168.254.x addresses. Completely different
