      Yeah, that's the whole point of the VPN. I seriously do not get what's your special issue with TUN.

        I configured my TUN, I can connect, it has a 192.168.75.0/24 network, but I can't access my LAN which is 192.168.25.0/24 and I don't think I can add routes on my unrooted Toshiba Excite 10.

          Well, then you are doing it wrong. Impossible to advise without any information whatsoever on the configuration.

                      Peer-to-Peer is for site-to-site connection. Cannot see what are you trying to do here with the Android phone.

                          Actually I already did.  I had forgotten to open up UDP port 1195 on my modem, stupid me!  At first I changed the 1194 OpenVPN setting to TUN from TAP but since I couldn't get it to work at first I created a 2nd OpenVPN server (1195) and I never opened the port.  I'm using the TUN as a "TAP" on my Excite 10.  I can now see the local network (LAN) on my pfSense from my Excite connected via OpenVPN Connection (non-root)

                                  If you are going to run a SIP server, remember to forward port 5060 OK?  I read some places it helps.
