TomatoUSB

Hi all, first of all thanks to the devs, Tomato is very nice. I came from DD-WRT and haven't looked back. (Just add SNMP and multiple SSID's and it'll be great ;-))

So, I bought a months subscription to btguards VPN-service, just to see if I could get it to work on the router (WRT320N) and learn a little about VPN along the way. The VPN tunnel works just fine if I set it up with windows 7's built-in VPN-client.

I looked at the instructions for connecting with OpenVPN on linux at the site, and through some trial and error (mostly the username and password-related stuff) I can get the router to connect (at least it claims it does), but clients lose all internet-connection. I cannot ping anything on the internet-side from either connected computers or the router.

This is my config so far:

I have downloaded a certificate, which is placed in the root of /jffs, and the username and password are stored in a file called vpnpass, also in /jffs.

This is what I have in "VPN Client Configuration/Client 1/Advanved/Custom configuration" (it is most likely complety messed up, I'm a complete VPN-noob):
-
client
dev tun
proto udp
remote eu.vpn.btguard.com 1194
persist-key
persist-tun
ca /jffs/btguard.ca.crt
comp-lzo
verb 3
auth-user-pass /jffs/vpnpass
auth-nocache
-

Has anybody got any tips on how to connect properly to btguard VPN via Tomato? And shouldn't there really be a username and password-field in the GUI somewhere?

Oh, btw, I connect to my ISP w/PPPoE through a bridged ADSL-modem.

Thanks in advance.

Go there:
http://www.acevpn.com/knowledge-base/configure-ace-vpn-on-tomato-router/

And try this procedure, instead of jffs one. I works good for me (not for the same VPN, but for a similar One cert/login/password one).

Thank you very much, after a little fiddling with it, it now works. Turned out I was missing the ns-cert-type option. Again, thanks!

I am trying to setup BTGuard VPN on my dd-wrt router as well. any chance you could send out steps on what you had to edit\tweek to get it to work? thanks for your help.

DD-WRT Configuration
Before setting up the VPN Server, you must first make sure your installed build of DD-WRT includes the PPTP VPN features. The DD-WRT feature list shows this as “PPTP / PPTP Client” on their chart. Check the installed version on your router (which you can see in the upper right corner on the configuration pages) against the chart. If the feature is not included in your build, you will need to flash your router with a DD-WRT version which does include the “PPTP / PPTP Client”.

To turn on the PPTP VPN Server, navigate to the Services tab and then the VPN sub-tab and select the option to enable the PPTP Server.

Server IP: Public IP address of the router
Client IP(s): List of local IP’s (respective to the VPN network) to use when assigning IP addresses to clients connecting through the VPN. In our example, we are setting aside 5 IP addresses (192.168.16.5, .6, .7, .8, .9) for use by the VPN clients.
CHAP-Secrets: User name and passwords for VPN authentication. The format is “user * password *” (user[space]*[space]password[space]*), with each entry on its own line. In our example, there is just a single accepted user name (jfaulkner) and password (SecretPassword1).
i hope it helps you have any confustion go to Ddwrt Setup guide bestvpnservice.com

hey.. I know this thread is a bit old but could you list your complete config for BTGuard vpn.. i can connect but then can't ping out at all.. I am not sure what is going wrong but i assume it's dns related .. had the same problem on one machine when connecting to btguard solved it my adding

script-security 2
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

but that failed on tomato.. not sure if there is a similar command there or not
