        Can you send a screenshot of telnet.

        Telnet from the open vpn client to 192.168.10.55 1004

            Ok. That shows your port is open and visible to the vpn clients.

            If a blank screen appears then the port is open, and the test is successful.
            If you receive a connecting… message or an error message then something is blocking that port.

            But the port is working for you

                Thats completely different. You have to do a port forward if you are trying to access it using Wan IP.

                You can do it in Firewall / NAT / Port Forward

                    Under Destination Address i would select "Single Host or Alias" instead of "Wan address" and add 192.168.10.55

                      What? That port forward looks fine.

                      There should be a corresponding firewall rule on WAN passing traffic to 192.168.10.55 port 1004. By default it would have been automatically created.

                      DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

                        He messaged me. He is double natting. Thats another issue. His WAN ip is a private address and not the actual public ip

                          Does not matter. All that means is he has to forward from upstream too.

                          The traffic will still arrive to WAN address:1004. That is what needs to be forwarded.

                          If the upstream router knows about the 192.168.10.55 address he's doing it wrong.
