[Q] VPN working in CM9 for NC? - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Has anyone successfully gotten native VPN to work in CM9 on the NC? I've been trying for a couple of days and think everything is ok, but it will not connect. Just trying to see if it is me or if VPN in CM9 is not working yet.
Thanks!

Any ideas?

Doesnt work for me
Either CM7 or CM9...

I can run DroidVPN with no problem, it's a free app with fast servers. But I know people need their own networks to work, and have seen a lot of folks say that VPN is pretty much not working through the Cyanogen structure, 7 and 9.
But if you just need to bypass a work , school, or national (read: Chinese) firewall, DroidVPN has worked great for me,

Thank you jt1134,
Seriously.... you are FAST! I will get to testing after work.
This is confirmed to be working. Just have to fuss with some settings but I am all connected up to the openvpn server.
Thanks again JT!!!

Terror,
This is exactly what I'm trying to do. Can you list what you did to connect? I'd really appreciate it.
I am in the works of finishing it all up at the moment and will write a quick guide when I am totally complete.
Okay, I am in the process of finding a fix for ROUTE/IFCONFIG not working, I can load the module just fine and it tries to connect but when I use a terminal and try ROUTE or IFCONFIG they output nothing to the terminal.
So.... I am making progress but need to overcome this issue before I can get any further.
JT,
Do you have a tun.ko for your non-voodoo kernel? I'd love to get this up and running so I can use Bria (voip) over 3G. We have both OpenVPN and Cisco IPSEC at work but, it seems that I can't try either option without a working tun.ko module.
Terror_1,
How are you coming? Seems like you got it to connect OK but, your only issue was terminal output. All I need to do is connect to use our Voip server at work.
After a week of fussing with it I finally gave up. Followed a few guides to get the openvpn working on the TomatoUSB or TomatoRT router. It almost seems like the versions of openvpn are not capable of working together but now that you mention it I just might give it another shot.
Way better to get 2 heads than just one.

[Q] VPN PPTP on samsung captivate

Hello everyone
I am desperately looking on the forums and everywhere on the web to have the PPTP VPN setup on my samsung captivate. I have a hideip vpn account and it works fine on my win pc and iphone/ipods which ive tested. The onle reason for me to get samsung captivate is for the adobe flash support Coming to the matter, when I confiure the VPN PPTP with my credentilas it connects just fine and is very stable. But there seems to be no data transfer when I browse and I always end up with page not available error. someone please help me with fixing this issue.
I would greatly appreciate the work. thank you all for considering my issue. Also i have to let you know that i have 2.2 installed on the device. thanks
I just found this via google and I have the same problem. I thought it was my ROM. I am on Cog5 beta 2. Which is Android 2.3.3 and I can get VPN to work at all and I couldn't remember if it worked before.
Any luck?
After reading this post http://androidforums.com/captivate-support-troubleshooting/227657-hi-looking-some-captivate-vpn-help.html
I tired pinging the internel network and it worked. So its something with the browser or routing internet traffic?

has anyone figured out how to get Wireless Tether App on CM7?

hey everyone, I LOVE cm7 and stock android, but I use my phone to tether more than anything else and I need a solid tethering solution. My problem is that Wireless Tether app doesn't work with CM7 (at least last time I tried it) and the built in tether doesn't seem to work for me, (broadcasts but I don't get any internet connection)
Does anyone know of a way to Fix wireless tether app or why the built in one isn't working for me?
use barnacle tether, its free. but if the default settings arent working then go into the barnacle settings and click the "skip-wpa supplicant" or something like that. if it didnt work the first time it should work then
Thanks! I'll try that
I use the built in tether quite often on CM7. I am running rc3 right now and haven't had a chance to test it out but it has worked on the last 4 nightlies I've run.

the reason why the built in tether does not work for you is because you either used a wireless tether app or you have one installed. what you have to do is you must uninstall all wireless tether apps you have and then you must reflash your mod and obviously reboot once you do that it will be working for you. trust i just had this problem and i did a lot of research on it and i actually figured this out today and it worked. so give it a try and let me know how it goes. ^_^
would love to say this is the problem but it isnt
has something to do with dhcp, i can connect wirelessly to the phone np but wont get an internet connection because the phone decides to flake out and not assign an ip address for my laptop.
I tried to connect it earlier and it didnt work but i left it connected. I walked away, came back 10 minutes later and finally got an ip address and internet on my laptop. so either it just takes its sweet time assigning an ip or its tempermental
all good here
hi,
of no real help, but I am using CM7 stable and mine works without issue.
CM7 Final here and it works fine for me. Like others suggested, try wiping and reflashing.

Cisco RV200W

I figured I would add some info instead of just learning. I really like XDA-dev... and go to this site often to solve issues.
I purchased a Cisco rv220w router on sale for the purpose of building a cheap network and VPN for my android (Tablets and HTC one Phones).
I am pretty good at networking so I gave it a try. In less than a day I now have a fully working network to include a VPN server that works.
VPN for all android devices uses PPTP. I know the limits and fully realize that PPTP has issues. However it is working. The VPN is designed for connectivity, not privacy. I want to avoid censorship and wifi sniffing of passwords, etc... My solution after 3 days seems to be working.
Getting other VPN solutions to work with Android seems to be a bridge to far. If there are other VPN protocols that work please let me know and I will try them. I have devices running 4.2, 4.2 and 4.4. I have a few devices running Windows. I will use cisco any connect for windows computers. Not the best but it works.
Any improvements or suggestions are welcome.
I use OpenVPN. Works very well for Android and Macs. There's a client for Android too.
You can download the free OpenVPN image from their website, but it's limited to only 2 users. For my purpose, it works great.
I will try it. Yesterday I had to reboot the router after 3 days of no problem. It kept dropping WiFi to a tablet. I will have to keep an eye on it.

VPN Broken on 6.0.1?

Hi All,
Since I upgraded to 6.0.1 (stock) my VPN connection no longer works. Not using any app just the built in Android VPN to hide.me.
Used to work on 4.4.4 and 5.1.1.
Exactly the same settings on the same network on my Note 3 (4.4.2) work just fine.
Always the same 'unsuccessful' message on the Note 4 (SM-N910C) though.
PS I have done a factory reset, cleared the cache etc etc just in case but no joy.
Anyone come across this. Any solution or workaround?
Cheers,
MM
I think there was a problem with VPNs in Android 6.0 marshmallow. Don't know if it's been fixed though.
VPN is working fine on my phone with 6.0.1 MM. I use Betternet VPN.
I experienced a problem before with VPN when I installed the xposed module Force Immersive Mode. But after disabling this xposed module, my VPN worked fine again.
Well, I am totally unable to get a VPN running using the built in VPN client using L2TP/IPSEK PSK.
For the benefit of others who may have the same issue. I download OpenVPN for Android from the market and used a ovn (config) file from my VPN provider (hide.me) and it all just worked first time.
If you don't have an ovn file you can configure manually.
I am very surprised at Sammy letting it ship with broken VPN functionality. A lot of us need this to access work networks etc etc.
Mrmyagi did you ever find a fix for the built in VPN access? I use a tab4 for work and cannot get into my VPN anymore on marshmallow. Our IT department can't even figure out a workaround
I use tunnelbear on 6.0.1, and it works fine.

I would use a third party app only company doesn't allow installation of any apps off store. Might be able to install it with just apk though
FWIW I use the stock VPN facility to connect to the VPN facility of my Draytek router, and it works fine, so the stock facility isn't completely broken.

I use OpenVPN for Android (available on Play Store). Works for me and actually better (IMHO) than the built-in client.
