I have a GL-MT300N-V2 and tried to setup remote access through ddns.
I keep getting directed to my modem/router that the GL-MT300N-V2 is plugged in to.
I disable VPN when i try to connect remotely other than that I haven’t tried anything like port forwarding because I don’t know which ports to open.
I’m trying to update my openVPN files remotely from time to time because I travel a lot, any help would be appreciated.
Well i can still see the post you removed and yes, you just need to remove that file it wrote:
/users/xxx/.ssh/known_hosts
Remove it and try again. That warning was because once you connect to a host for the first time it will save the devices key. If you then for example reset your router, a new key is made. When you then try to connect, the keys are different and that is the warning.
As a bonus. You can create a poor mans VPN using Bitvise SSH Client and another program. Unfortunately the other program is not free.
In the Services tab you can see in the screenshot above, you can set up a Socks5 proxy that will forward via the SSH connection. Using a program called “Proxifier”, you can then route all windows traffic into the proxy and out the other side of the SSH connection
Oh god I’m such an idiot. I only have my Mac with me right now, any chance there’s a similar prog for Mac? or am I hoping for too much . Again thank you so much for your help. Cheers
Open the Terminal app under macOS (⌘-space for Spotlight search is the quickest)
Enter the ssh command. Cursor keys and delete can be used to edit.
Once you’ve entered it once, up-arrow will let you go back in your history and return will re-execute the line. ctrl-r (^r) will also let you search through your history in the terminal window, so, for example ^rssh will likely bring it up again. ^r again will search back even further for things that match “ssh”.
thanks a lot both you, I’m away for work but I have a laptop at home. I think I’ll do what @Johnex suggested once I get back and update you guys on how it goes!
@Johnex I tried the program and did what you showed in the screenshot, remote access is still not working, I think I might try to do this at a friends house, perhaps my ISP is blocking port forwarding. If you guys have any more suggestions I’m all ears, otherwise I’ll keep you guys posted about what happens
Edit: FYI just in case there’s some confusion I’m trying to establish a remote connection to my mango v2 from a different connection. like from a different country
Nah man the box is connected through ethernet to a modem router and I think the ISP is blocking it, so I’m gonna try with a few other ones to see if that’s not the problem, thank a lot for your help though
