DD-WRT
March 26th, 2009
So I have a new client and they needed a site-to-site VPN. I opted for a DD-WRT solution to save them money. I get the two Linksys WRT54GL routers and load DD-WRT on them.
In my test environment I was able to establish an OpenVPN connection. As SOON as I get them on the customer’s site and change the IPs, everything breaks. I had to temporarily set them up with a PPTP VPN solution until I can get OpenVPN working.
The solution I tried was using just one static key as shown in the DD-WRT wiki docs for establishing a VPN. I’m going to try a CA/Cert next; that may do the trick.
