Streaming over VPN doesn't find SMB

  • Hi,

    I'm pretty new and I'm going to try to explain my issue the best.

    So general infos:

    My Homenetwork has a NAS with the IP 192.168.1.100

    I'm running a VPN Server, and the Subnetwork is 192.168.2.X, so the connection of the VPN client is i.e. 192.168.2.200

    Installed the VPN client on LibreElec, needed to remove the stay alive ping, and it connects and is fine, more or less...

    - Testing with connecting LibreElec using my Mobile 4G connection, I can connect and see the SMB share.

    - Using my Mobile, with a Software for streaming, I can connect from a foreign Network (192.168.1.0/24 one) via Wifi and VPN and access the SMB

    - Using the same foreign network with LibreElec (over Wifi and VPN), I can connect but it doesn't have access to the SMB

    Any idea what I can do?! Can't find the issue

    Tnx

  • No,

    I found a solution, issue was because it was having the same subnetwork.

    So your VPN Subnet (192.168.2.0/24) should be different then the one you are connecting from.

    Don't know why it worked with my phone.
