We had disabled LAN forward to WAN when OpenVPN is started, to avoid data leakage. In your usage scenario, you have to ssh to the router, and edit the file **/etc/init.d/startvpn** and **/etc/vpn.user**. Please delete or comment on those lines, and restart the VPN client, but it might has potential data leakage.
