        From where? From the server side?

        Your LAN might be in a different subnet.

          I have the issue with VPN Tap mode:

          Sorry to give you one more issue : what is the future of open vpn tap

          Adapt you search request somewhat, so you'll find what will happen with "OpenVPN TAP" in the future.

          I'm not an OpenVPN expert, just another OpenVPN user with the impression that TAP was going to be 'scrapped'.

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
          Edit : and where are the logs ??

                Do you mean, you ping from the client itself and use the LAN IP as source, or pinging from any other device on the clients LAN?

                For other devices on the LAN, you would need to add a static route to them for the remote network and point it to the Windows machine.
                Additionally on Windows you would need to enable routing and configure its firewall accordingly to pass through the traffic. I don't think, that the bridge do the job without this.

                It would be a better practice to run the OpenVPN client on the router instead.

                Anyway you need add a CSO on the OpenVPN server for the client, where you state the client sides LAN network at "Remote Networks". Additionally you need to state it also in the server settings.
