I don't know how others do things, I'm going to tell you what I do:

In LE I have many server services installed, and among them are Zerotier and WireGuard, for the remote connection I preferably use Zerotier VPN, where my LE has the IP address 10.10.10.1, and as an alternative I also have WireGuard VPN available, where my LE has the IP address 10.10.20.1. So then, with my smartphone from anywhere I can access to portainer in LE with the IPs 10.10.10.1 and 10.10.20.1, and check, for example, which containers have been updated by the container updater ouroboros, and also put running and stopping other containers. Obviously, with my smartphone I can open an SSH session with Termius or an SFTP session with the X-plore file explorer at any time to do other things.

Does this help you?

I have installed docker nexcloud twice, the first time with nginx and mariadb, and the second time with apache and mariadb. I have LE installed on an Intel i5 mini PC with 8GB RAM with plenty of power for the requirements. In spite of everything, nexcloud works with an unacceptable slowness. I may not have applied enough tweaks but I think nextcloud is not made for home use, I will continue to use syncthing because it works great with any processor!

In addition to the language, check the location of your country and the date and time settings in Kodi. You don't have to do anything else. The EPG will appear in your local time.

My speedtest.sh works well in LE 9.2.6 x86_64:

#!/bin/sh
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.py | python -

I have tried to use the LibreELEC Chrome addon but have abandoned the idea. Using a browser with a resolution of 1980x1080 (2K) or 4K on a TV 2.5 m away with a remote control and with children requesting cartoons or your wife requesting another TV channel is a difficult task.

In the end I installed a docker container with jlesage/firefox image with detailed information from hub.docker.com and everything works fine. The firefox browser is accessible from any device at the address http://<libreelec_ip>:5800 and the remote mode works very well from a tablet and even from a smartphone. Normally this container is stopped and I start it from portainer when necessary, that is, almost never

Everything seems to be fine, your RPi simultaneously uses the IP 192.168.0.2 on the ethernet interface, and the IP 192.168.1.1 on the tether interface. For tether clients, their gateway must be 192.168.1.1. Probably the problem is in the lack of a bridge between ethernet and tether, you could try with the commands:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o tether -j ACCEPT

iptables -A FORWARD -i tether -o eth0 -j ACCEPT

(replace tether and eth0 with the interface names of your device)

... and want to enable an access point to connect to the internet. I can create the AP but when I connect it says "No internet access". How do i fix this?

Bearing in mind that I do not know RPi, with the information you give I can only give advice:

- Does DHCP work in tether? If it does not work, have you correctly assigned IP clients, gateway and DNS manually?

- Does the bridge between the tether interface and the ethernet interface work? If it does not work, then it is necessary to add iptables commands at LibreELEC startup.

If you think that the activation of tether as an access point is difficult then it is better to forget about that. There are few cases this is useful.

Forget Miracast, it is proprietary software, LibreELEC will never be able to receive the screen of your android phone or send it to your Smart TV.

If you want to use this go to the Google store, there you can find what you are looking for.

A few days ago I launched the Kodi DLNA server for my media library and it worked great, to share TV via DLNA I needed to install an old xupnpd-iptv-one server with docker, and it worked fine too, but it was necessary to load the TV channel list on /storage/.config/autostart.sh. Now I have replaced these two services with just one, jellyfin, installed with docker, and everything works better. Smart TVs and VLC do not need anything to access LibreELEC's multimedia and TV services. To avoid overloading the processor, all scheduled tasks of jellyfin are scheduled from 5 to 7 in the morning.

I always thought you were using your private VPN server. If you have problems with a public VPN server, check with your provider. I'm sorry.

When the user connects to the network he can access and see all shares defined on the network

What you want I don't know how to do it in openvpn but I can do it in zerotier. Zerotier is a service that creates an additional network interface on a device and manages a private virtual network accessible from anywhere on the internet. If we connect a second device to our virtual private network then we can establish communication links between the two devices. The second device only sees the first device but does not see any other device or anything related to the local network of the first device. This is the default setting.

In zerotier we can also establish a bridge on any connected device to have access to its local network, in a unidirectional way (zerotier towards the ethernet / wireless interface) or absolutely bidirectional to relay EVERYTHING that happens in our local network to the zerotier network. This is done with simple iptables commands.

Maybe zerotier, because its flexibility, is the solution to your problem.

Try running the SSH command:

route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw 10.7.1.1

Note: I am surprised by the first and third tun0 routings ( Genmask 128.0.0.0), I do not know what they mean or what they are intended for. Don't forget to thoroughly review the openvpn server configuration.

To cancel the modifications, restart the device.

I don't use openvpn and I can't explain the problems you have, but with my zerotier network I always have to apply a linux routing command with delayed start (long enough for LE to establish the VPN interface) in autostart.sh to redirect all traffic to the remote VPN point

The command I use is

route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw <remote-gateway-private-ip>

where <remote-gateway-private-ip> has to belong to a domain shared with your device, you will be able to see your domains with the ifconfig command. If I do not use this command, the Internet output is carried out through my local geographic IP and only VPN is used to connect with remote servers. After using this command, all internet outings are carried out from the geographic IP of the remote servers (obviously the VPN server device has to have a bridge established with the internet exit interface).

This may also be the solution to your problem of using local IP addresses instead of Italian IP addresses.

Code

echo "sleep 30s" >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh

^ this is wrong, it should be "30" not "30s"

Sorry, I like the simple rules, the scripts naming the shell and as executable files, and the sleep command always with the suffix [s, m, h, d], and always checking that they work because there are too many linux that do not follow the rules.

explain me StepByStep

You need a quick linux course, there are many on the internet, you will have no trouble finding one.

For the moment, type the following commands from an SSH console connected to LE to create your autostart.sh file:

echo "#!/bin/sh" > /storage/.config/autostart.sh
echo "sleep 30s" >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh
chmod +x /storage/.config/autostart.sh
reboot # to test

Quote from Nayed

seems I have the same issue

Very interesting! It seems that no one else has this problem, how did you come to the conclusion that your problem is caused by the default user-agent? In which country does this occur?

Quote from HEck

I need a starup-delay of about 30s after power-on

Putting a large general system boot delay is never a good alternative, but if this is what you want you can write "sleep 30s" in /storage/.config/autostart.sh

I do not understand what the problem is. My question is where do you install the VPN client? If you are installing it on a tether client, for example 192.168.1.2, there should be no problem and you should follow the instructions above. Otherwise, you must repeat the previous steps with the VPN service installed and do an analysis again.

There is no reason for your VPN provider to block the connection unless it counts the number of connected devices. The provider has no means of knowing if you are using tether or not, it can only count the number of connected devices with the same public IP address.
