I set up a BTGuard openvpn connection. It worked, I messed with it, broken
-
I set everything up and it worked just fine. Then I added an interface and set the opt1 as ovpnc1. This was fine. Then I tried applying it and then things went south. So I unchecked apply and tried to set it back to the way it was. It was not having it. So I deleted the opt1 interface, and the associated gateway. Still no luck. Finally I deleted the openvpn connection and recreated it. At this point it would no longer even connect anymore.
Here's what my log looks like:

Unchecking Enable authentication of TLS packets fixed that issue.
Now the issue is that it connects, but I can't ping anything other than ca.vpn.btguard.com. I'm guessing it's something to do with routing, but I'm not sure.

Ok I believe I made progress. The VPN will stay connected now. I can also ping the other end of the tunnel which would be 204.16.202.135 in this case. The issue now is that I can't get any further than that ip. I still have Enable authentication of TLS packets unchecked.
Also, the gateway for the vpn's status is down which is weird because I can ping the 204.16.202.135. Maybe the issue lies there.
Another interesting thing is that I can ping www.yahoo.com from the opt1 (vpn) interface.
I am also not able to ping the gateway I'm getting from the vpn. For instance, if my ip is 10.10.0.118 my gateway is 10.10.0.117. I can't ping 10.10.0.117.
So basically the vpn seems to work ok as long as I'm just pinging from the pfsense to the outside world. The issue seems to be in getting the lan traffic to use the vpn connection. I have rules in place, but either they aren't working or I have the wrong ones, or there is another issue altogether.

Oh sweet success! After many hours, I've finally got it working! Somewhere else on the forums someone said to set the outbound nat to manaul outbound nat rule generation. I tried this, but it didn't work. I must have had a firewall rule incorrect at the time. I tried it again just now, and it works!
I'll post a new thread with how to setup a functional BTGuard vpn this weekend.

Still waiting :D
Also, don't hesitate to take screenshot ;)

Sorry I got distracted with Easter stuff. I'll get it together ASAP I promise :D.
Edit:
Ok this should work.LINK Copying and pasting from word to here mangled the formatting. If that works for you, I'll make a new post and redo the formatting for the forum.
