VPN client on R6700v3 router - internal network
I have a R6700v3 router with the VPN service set up. I have a Windows 10 laptop with the latest OpenVPN client on it. I had to set it to Unsecured since the TLS was reporting as too low. The client does connect and gets a 192.168.254.2 address from the router. I verified the router has the laptop listed as a connected device.
However, I can not ping or connect to any of my internal 172.16.200.xxx network devices. I have the VPN service set for 'Home network and Internet' in its setup.
I found mention of 'VPN Passthrough' in other forums, but I don't see that setting on the R6700v3. Any suggestions?
Thank you!
