Hi all,

Anyone able to assist it would be greatly appreciated

I would like to whitelist a list of VPN servers, and block all other outgoing traffic (such as if the VPN drops, all traffic is blocked) but if the VPN reconnects, it can flow through.

Also, how to get the VPN to reconnect after it drops and auto re-trying?

Have two DDWRT routers - one has the VPN.
Modem is Asus DSL-AC68U.

I somehow jagged this many years ago but I have no idea how I did it.

Thanks for any support

Thanks eibgrad, thats great.

Just to clarify,
The VPN will auto reconnect on drop out and cycle through the list?
The killswitch just blocks all non VPN traffic?

thanks again

also, I cannot get it working using the VPN gui, I have to save command with a script.
(I also have to enable VPN server and client in the gui (I dont enter any settings in the gui though as it breaks it))

I’m not sure how to add the list of servers in the command script. Each time I try it breaks.
if I try adding it in the gui, it breaks.

DDWRT works best if you use the GUI to setup an OVPN client.

So migrate settings to the GUI and delete the script.

To what provider are you connecting? Almost all have instructions to setup a client with the GUI

ibVPN

their gui setup and their command config appear to be different (one has TAP the other TUN) if that makes a difference.

took a bit of mucking around to get this file, might backup this profile and tranpose the script over instead of using their gui settings.

I am also using an older build, 21061 on DIR-632 - it doesnt have fields for username and password in the gui, which caused me issues. Tried a few things to address this that didnt work so appreciate any guide



thanks

First your build is really old, lots of things have changed, you should research upgrading to a more recent build.

Reset to defaults before and after upgrading and restore settings manually do not restore from a backup

see: https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/D-Link_DIR-632

https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=77729&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=465

But take note, I think a lot of recent builds are too big, the router is picky about size, I think firmware has to be < 7,6 MB

Research the build threads

ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2019/03-07-2019-r39101/dlink-dir632a/

This seems the last build with a size which might work

ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2019/03-11-2019-r39144/dlink-dir632a/

But again see the build threads if it is working

Thanks egc - great information

Yes I had a lot of trouble finding a version that would work correctly with openvpn.

Thanks again
