Router VPN giving IP outside subnet, how can I change that?

[Ackis01]

Hello - decided to try playing around with the OpenVPN functionality of my router to take advantage of my Pi-Hole.  I'm able to connect and I get an IP address, however it looks like the IP I'm getting is not part of my LAN's subnet - how can I change this?

My R8000 isn't my DHCP server, that's a seperate device (Raspberry Pi).

Thanks.

Nothing.

The OpenVPN server configuration includes the VPN address scope to be used. While these consumer devices allow to disable the DHCP, there is no UI control to change the OpenVPN client IP range.

So nothing I can do?

Nothing.

Thanks for the response. Just another disappointment with this crap router.

New firmware on at least one Netgear device killed off the ability to use Pi-Hole. Rolling back fixed the problem.
