              More specifically, what did you enter for Tunnel Network and Local Network? Those have to be networks and not single IP addresses.

                I chose local user access
                CA and Server certificate
                interface WAN
                UDP on IPv4 only
                Local port default 1194
                tunnel settings I have network with mask 10.x.10.1 /24 and I put tunnel network with mask 10.x.50.1 /24
                client settings: dynamic IP checked, topology - subnet one ip address per client
                dns 8.8.8.8

                  Thank you for pointing to my error!!!
                  I changed 10.x.50.1/24 to 10.x.50.0/24 and it works now!

                    No, its still wrong. Tunnel and Local can't be the same network. If your LAN is really 10.x.50.0/24, then make your tunnel network something else like 10.x.60.0/24 or 192.168.0.0/24.

                    By the way, you don't need to obscure private IP space since it isn't routable from the Internet.
