![]() It may actually be something with the Disk Station VPN Server that's not quite right. Prior to Eero, I had issues with what appeared to be the Verison router not forwarding rules all the time. The auto-block feature may also be causing this. The VPN Server on the disk station was also blocking the connection for some reason. (especially if your reservation or port forwarding rules were incorrect and needed to be corrected. Rebooting the Eero will force it to clear any open connections. First the Eero (because it's UDP) Holds the port forwarding session open for a period of time. If it does, then disconnect the VPN, Reboot your Eero again, disconnect wifi on your mobile device, and try over your cellular connection once everything is up. On the disk station, go to packages, STOPm, then START THE VPN SERVER SERVICEįirst try to VPN into your Diskstation WHILE on the Eero wireless network. Reboot the Eero and restart the VPN Server Service: make sure you've setup the L2TP VPN configuration correctly. add port forwarding rules for all 3 ports to your disk station reservation in eero remove ports 500, 45 from any other devices make sure your disk station has a reservation/IP So the feature request is: support port forwarding for all VPN protocols, especially the ones supported by iOS devices. I realize it's a bit of an ambiguous request, because port forwarding is supported on the EERO. ![]() Where as, if the EERO was able to support port forwarding for VPN, it wouldn't be necessary. This is now working but I essentially have an additional piece of hardware in my network just to perform those functions. So, to get around this, I have used my EEROs in bridge mode, and have my older router performing DHCP and port forwarding. I do know that when I tried to setup my EERO to perform the port forwarding, I was not able to connect to my VPN server when outside of my network. The port forwarding is on multiple ports, but apparently because this port forwarding is specifically for VPN, routers often have additional "built-in" capabilities to support VPN. ![]() I had previously been using an older VPN protocol, but had to change it as I usually access it from my iPhone, which stopped supporting that protocol. I have to setup port forwarding on my modem and router. In order to be able to reach it from outside of my home network (which is really, the only time I need to access it). It enables me to access my home network while I am not at home. I recently got 3 EEROs and as I was trying to work them into my home network topology, I realized I wouldn't be able to use them fully because the port forwarding feature wasn't working as I needed.Ī little background: I have a Synology Disk station which runs a VPN server. ![]()
