The pi, as well as hosting the vpn server, also hosts a small webpage that is only accessible to users inside the network. It'a a very basic static page that allows me to execute some ssh commands such as turn on the my fileserver, restart plex. This page is accessible when connected to the VPN. As is my plex/Emby server webpages. Therefore I don't think that port 80 is being blocked. |
Are we not just over thinking this?
If it all works OK when connecting your VPN via your 3G/4G phone hotspot, but not through the public BT Openreach, that's where the issue lies surely?
Quote: | BT changed something in the last month or so which is now blocking (or interfering with) VPN connections.
I've worked in IT for the last 30 years and whilst I'm not a networking expert, I understand enough to know that this isn't something that we, the customer, can fix.
I've tried everything possible, as have my work colleagues, all without success.
Myself and some of my work colleagues have spoken with BT "experts", used live chat, search the forums and are still no closer to resolving this issue.

It sound like they're trying to block the sort of relaying which Torrent and Acestreams would use through a VPN to stream sports etc, but not being blocked by your mobile provider. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

It sounds like it works as expected elsewhere, which like mpd says means it not the config, it's something on the Openzone side. iirc those bt hotspots have those captive portal pages, have you fully connected and completed that first?
If you can ping home network internal IPs and external website IP's but not reach the sites, it sounds like a DNS issue.
Additionally the easiest way to tell if you are tunnelled or split, is go to a website like www.whatismyip.com, if it comes up with your home WAN IP then you are tunnelled. ____________________ Observation is the greatest source of wisdom. |

I have that line in my server config. I specifically remember adding it in when I set up the VPN server as my initial test returned a different ip address to my home network from whatsmyip
One semi-random thought I had when I went to get some lunch was is it possible that these BT hotspots are available because someone is sharing their internet connection. These would then be running on their own network. Is it possible that I'm running on the same network as something on there. i.e. my route is already a route |
Most of these BT hotspots are a guest network on a different subnet on another BT customer's router. They're in "wireless isolation" mode, so can't access the other wireless LAN on the same router and can;t see other devices on the same network. As has been said though, they usually direct you to a proxy page where you have to login with your BT login details in order to use it.
Most BT routers broadcast 2-3 wireless networks, the private one, the openreach one for all other BT customers to use and occasionally one for VOIP phones. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
