You cannot test your Open VPN setup with a device that is connected to the same network where the Open VPN server is running.
If you have a mobile device, you can shut off the Wi-Fi and test through your cell connection. If you have a laptop and a mobile device, activate the hotspot on your mobile device and connect your laptop through the hotspot.
On either a mobile device or computer, you have to start the Open VPN application and connect back to the Open VPN server before use.
