I would like to use OpenVPN server on GL-AX1800. I tried to save TCP port 443 but it is impossible. I need this port because in restricted networks, like hotels, it is one possibility to connect to my network at home.
I am not familiar to make any changes regarding the router in its configuration.
I found an information regarding my topic:
But I really have no idea how I could do it.
It would help me to know all necessary steps regarding the change of the port.
I looked in the Advanced Setting and also with WinSCP regarding
vi /etc/lighttpd/conf.d/30-openssl.conf
and
/etc/lighttpd/conf.d/
but both do not exist.
It would be great if someone could tell me the exactly steps to change the port.
Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I got only error messages. I put your command in Putty and confirmed it with the return key. But I got many times the message āno such file or directoryā. Therefore what individual steps are necessary to get TCP port 443. Does there exist a chat with the support of Gli net? Thanks in advance.
Was there an update to process for setting up Open VPN Server on Port 443? Sometimes this seems to be only port open in highly restrictive environments.
A few months older thread, but I was able to get OpenVPN on my Brume 2 to use TCP/443, but I did it manually after looking through this and other threads here. I successfully used TCP/443 during my trip to Europe to connect to the Brume 2 OpenVPN server from whatever network I was connected to including my cellular WiFi hotspot. and even from a cruise shipās network.
I replaced the 443 listen port parameters in the /etc/nginx/conf.d/gl.conf file from 443 to 4433 using SSH and the vi text editor.
I rebooted, and after I rebooted I now to used https://192.168.8.1:4433 to connect to the SSL GUI.
I changed the OpenVPN server to use Protocol TCP and Port 443.
I started the OpenVPN and it started and is working on TCP/443.
Iām thinking about purchasing a new Flint 2 router, but I hope the procedure is the same if I do get it since the TCP/443 protocol doesnāt seem to be blocked anywhere that Iāve tried so far. And I hope that future firmware updates donāt overwrite this configuration and reset the gl.conf file back to the defaults.
In firmware 4.5, a security page was implemented, enabling users to customize the nginx port other than the standard 80 or 443. Flint 2 leads as the initial model to adopt this version.
However, since I already had the protocol āhackā setting configured, the upgrade replaced the gl.conf file with the original default SSL 443 port settings so the web GUI was not accessible since the OpenVPN connection started first using the TCP/443 port. Anyway, I manually changed the gl.conf file again to 4433 and rebooted so I could get into the web GUI. I then stopped the OpenVPN server and changed the OpenVPN server back to TCP/1194, and then changed the gl.inet file back to the default SSL 443 and rebooted. After the reboot, I used the GUI settings to change the Security page HTTPS port to 4433, and then changed the OpenVPN server to TCP/443 natively now. SWEET!
