hot spot over wifi, internet through ethernet

1st Official Post

    Hei, i've been trying to use my s905 box with libreelec as a wifi hotspot/vpn server.

    i activate the ethernet and i activate the tethering wifi bit. i plug the ethernet cable from the lan1 in router to s905 box. i connect to the hotspot but no internet, and no internet on 905 box either. tried conneting from different deivces, same result.

    i have no idea how to get this to work, seems so simple yet so difficult. anybody that can help me out a little.

    appreciate it .

    Thanks

    regards

    If you have a VPN tunnel active this will not work because the connection manager that controls the hotspot has no knowledge of the tunnel interface and thus won't NAT/route traffic to it.
