Im trying to set up an OpenVPN by connecting my router to a VPS server running OpenVPN. By following this tutorial

[https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-16-04#step-9-start-and-enable-the-openvpn-service][1]

I got it connected but I want to be able to access my LAN devices if I connect my phone to the OpenVPN. However when I connect my phone to the OpenVPN im not able to connect to any of my LAN devices. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

You need to add a directive like this to the config file. Adjust for your LAN ip range and server IP.

route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.2

Then restart the server.

  • Do you I need to add static routes on my router as well? – amiao Mar 11 '17 at 4:12
  • I don't know the answer to that. – Organic Marble Mar 11 '17 at 4:18
  • Do I run this command? or add that line to the conf file? 'route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.2' – amiao Mar 11 '17 at 4:24
