[GUIDE] How to setup VPN for game streaming - Shield General

I got VPN working on my shield... Quality is pretty good over LTE although with a lot more audio delay but that could just be LTE.
Step 1. Go to the Network and Sharing center and click the Change adapter settings button

}
Step 2. Press file -> new -> New Incoming Connection. Mirror settings below
Select user that you use. This will have the same user/pass as your computer
Step 3. Go to settings on your shield. Go to more -> vpn -> plus button (you may have to set a pin or pattern if you don't already)
Enter a name, your external ip address (or dynamic dns)
Step 5. Open the port TCP 1723 and GRE on your router. On fios actiontec this can be found in Port Fowarding and using the "PPTP" preset service.
Step 6. Click the new VPN entry on your Shield. Login and if all goes well it should say "Connected" YAY!

Great instructions, but my streaming PC isn't being detected.

NICE! Thanks.

should be noted that PPTP issn't secure. Same works for me via IPSec

Oh. My. God. I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!!! My Galaxy Note ll has full bars of T-Mobile LTE at my job. (Speedtests of 40MB/s and above). My home internet is 170mb/s and above. This is PERFECT! (Also note that the G-Note ll has unlimited data tethering as I work for TMO lol).

I have unlimited tethering too! (As long as I use a vpn!

It will work better if the computer accepting the vpn connections has a static ip

ok so am I forwarding to the IP on the shield or on the pc?

the pc you are using to accept the vpn connection

My isp is a jerk and I don't have access to the router configuration. Having the hardest time getting this set up since I have to tell them what to do over the phone. They apparently don't see anything on gre. Just Ip, forward port, and protocols TCP, UDP, and both

I probably do not have the same router, so the configuration isn't going to be the same. either way, I'm doing it over the phone because my ISP won't give configuration privileges, even if you have your own router.

what model router do you have? Also it will still be port forwarding and General Routing Encapsulation that need to be configured.

I have a comtrend Nexuslink 3100u. Its the isp's provided modem/router.
I never got the GRE setting figured out. So I tried setting an IP range in the IPv4 properties of the incoming. I now have a VPN, but I still can't access my streaming PC.

I've noticed after I got connected through the VPN my geforce PC was coming up as offline when I looked but when I tried to launch steam it seemed to work and launch all my games, it can get a little funky though sometimes it just won't work other times it works fine

Yup. I've been toying with it a bit now and I got it to work. I could probably use a bit more upload speed on the local side.

Am I reading this right? Does this allow usage of the streaming feature while not being local?
As mentioned above it says sound is way off, but what about the video?

My home internet runs the upload speed at 1mbps. Not great. If I run the hotspot from 3 bars of 4G on my phone to my shield, I can stream my pc games to my shield at a playable speed.

I seem to have a problem if I'm a certain distance from my house on 4g hotspot it always disconnects in the middle of a game, could it be because of my home internet connection

That's awesome to hear, especially since in my experience my hotspots tend to have a higher latency than regular connections. By the way after the audio update how is the audio sync with video on your hotspot? What would you estimate your average latency to be from your input to action taking place in game?

Is anybody else having wifi issues?

Literally received my N4 about 30 mins ago and Ive set it up etc. Ive noticed that the Wifi seems to be weak compared to all my other devices I have around me (it goes up and down and actually dropped out altogether once).
Anybody else have wifi issues?
hmm...i think so, yes
Gnex speedtest on wifi 5.19Mb
N4 speedtest on wifi 2.11Mb
not an "issue" but definitely slower
I have seen an improvent over my HTC Desire. With my 50 Mbps DL / 5Mbps UL
My results:
With WiFi N: 45 Mbps download / 5 Mbps Upload (The speedtest app just gives random download speed as I don't even get to see the download speed bar) Singal is between 40 and 60% according my router.
With WiFi G: 19 Mbps download / 5 Mbps Upload (Pretty much maxing the G bandwith) signal is 95% as the router is in the same room.
I just got phone this morning. I get my max 25 mg dl 5 upload and have had no issues
Mine was working poorly just as you described. I turned off WiFi optimization in the settings (says it helps with battery life, so I'm assuming this weakens WiFi) and I looked around in my router settings. It was set to 145Mbps (neighbor-friendly mode apparently) and was giving me less than 5Mbps up or down. After bumping it up to 300Mbps (performance mode), it is now giving me full speed for my 30/5 connection.
I'm having trouble connecting to my cisco router. It would say either "obtaining IP address" or "authenticating", then the connection breaks and it attempts to reconnect.
No issues for me.

I had an issue on mine where it lost connection with my wifi router, then kept showing no networks in range (usually there are around a dozen showing up due to neighbors). I tried turning wifi on and off, going into airplane mode, finally had to restart the device entirely to get wifi to detect any networks again. Hasn't recurred, but it does make me concerned.
Seems good to me:

I'm having problems connecting to my Buffalo router with WPA2 security. It connects just fine to my guest network that uses WEP authentication on the same router, but it just says authenticating or obtaining IP on my main network. My router is a BUFFALO AirStation HighPower N450 - WZR-HP-G450H using DD-WRT... Is Buffalo crap and that's my problem?? My Gnex connects to it fine.
I've tried disabling/enabling wifi, airplane mode then out of it, and rebooting my Nexus 4 without any luck.

[Q] Built in VPN client GN3 connection issue

Hi there,
Has someone find out how to make the vpn client work ?
I have a Mac Mini with OS X server running with a VPN server set on LT2P. With my GN3 when I try to connect, I cannot connect to the VPN server at all.
When using an iphone 5 with the same settings, it connects.
I have tested several times and for me it seems that the VPN client is faulty. The problem is that I cannot have any details/errors when I am trying to connect with my GN3.
Do you have the same issue ?
My N9005 has same problem

Do you know any VPN client that supports LT2P ? Cannot find decent one on Google Play.
I hope that Samsung will fix this VPN client. Maybe I will switch to OpenVPN if the issue is still there.

Not sure if we're having the same issues but I'm having problems getting a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - Verizon on the corporate VPN at my workplace. We have Cisco Ipsec Xauth w PSK. I brought the issue up with the carrier but they hadn't heard of anything. I took my phone into the store and verified with the demo unit in the store that it wouldn't connect. We verified that a demo Samsung Galaxy S4 connected no problem on the same Verizon wifi hotspot. As soon as you hit connect, the Galaxy Note 3 flashes connecting for like 1-2 secs then says disconnected. This is with the built in VPN app. I tried with vpncilla from the Google Playstore. It shows a false "connected", it doesn't reach anything on the corporate network. Checked the VPN logs never see it connect, but you do see when the user disconnects the false VPN "connection". If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi k-bull
I have tried your link without any success. Even with the last update for osx server it cannot connect to the VPN server, whereas I can do it with an ipad, a macbook air and an iPhone.

any workarround for this?
i would like to use the integrated function, because i dont wanna buy a expensive vpn app if its already built in and most importantly, i want to automate it with tasker, but that only works with the built it vpn not any third party app.....

Have you used the same SSID on your 5GHz as on your 2.4GHz?
If so: they must be different!

Did you find a solution? I have the same pproblem.This plus the unstable connection problem is making me miss my note 1
Found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675547 on 5ghz connection issues on Note 1 in Hong Kong. It describes channel limitation based on region. The file in my etc folder has ccode=GB which I assume is Great Britain. However, it allows the channels that my wifi router EA4500 is using on the 5ghz channel. So no luck on recognizing the 5 ghz network still.
I downloaed wifi analyzer and looked at my network. By default my router and I assume all the ones in my neighborhood use channel 1 on 2.4ghz. I just switched to channel 12 and there hasn't been any issue for the past hour i.e. no unstable connection warning from the phone. Just downloaded a 40MB file without any glitches at good speed. Will report back if the problem comes back.
Edit: Spoke too soon. Unstable connection warning back in a couple of hours. The interesting thing is that both my old Note 1 (N7000) and my wife's S4 can see and connect to the 5ghz SSID just fine and of course have no unstable connection notifications which seem to be an 'enhancement' in the note 3! Sigh Haven't even rooted the N9005 because of the knox flag or I would have played a bit with the wlan configs in the etc folder. Guess will have to wait for Samsung to come around to admitting a problem and then fixing it.
I've been having the same issue with my RT-AC66U.

I also have a RT-AC66U... and I'm connected fine with my Note 3.
go into your wifi settings and make sure that the third checkbox is not checked.
Name in french of this box is "Basculement réseau auto"...
With this setting enabled, my wifi is unstable even if the signal power is full.
Also make sure that you have the latest firmware on your router.
Try channel 48. Dont use those channels 160+, may not be supported.
I'm using an AC66U.

Slow WiFi Speeds on Z5 compared to other devices

Over the past day or two I've noticed the download speeds on my Z5 to be slower than my other devices on WIFI. I'm not sure if it's cause and effect or just a coincidence but my phone fell 2ft/70cm when it slid off a table and fell onto timber flooring landing directly on it's back.
The phone has a case but I've done a factory reset and the problem still persists. Perhaps I've damaged the antennas but my mobile data appears to have had no change in speeds. The speeds varied on my phone over these 2 days ranging from 1-3mbps compared to the normal 6mbps i get.
Check your modem/router frequency that it use to send out the WiFi signal, and if you can change the frequency of your modem or router then change it to something else and do a Speedtest.
With a app called Wifi analyser you can see which frequency band is best to use when you connected to your Wifi.
If none of the above steps helps, then I have no idea what it could be, my Wifi works great anyway, getting 11 mb/s download speed from my modem.

Z5 connects to AC router with 866Mbit/s speed.

Yep same as you, in addition if other devices are connected to the same band at slower speed they will also kill the speed of any other devices on that band

No the case won't affect this, in addition what are you actually talking about, your speed has gone to crap accessing files within your network, or are you talking about the internet. Because there are so many variables that can affect internet speeds, and a huge percentage of them are fully beyond your control.
I ran some speed tests at a friend's house to see what was going on and it seemed to show similar speeds against my friend's devices also connected on WIFI. I'm suspecting it to be a problem with my router but will run a few more tests with a borrowed router.
I am having problem with wifi, it says connected, but no internet access.
This is happening lately, mostly after last update .182
I don´t know but since then I have restarted my router for three times now, on laptop I don´t have any issues.
Speedtest gives me 219/200mbit/s on my z5 compact, could be better but it's acceptable for a phone

Other than home (which does not have any issue) I do not connect to other wifi. But on my recent travel, i've had the same issue as you connecting to various places which has wifi. I believe its due to router settings mostly.

I'm getting the opposite - mine's a disconnection issue. No WiFi connection issues but when I leave the house my E6653 sometimes fails to drop the WiFi connection for mobile data so I'm miles away with "Connected, No Internet" with a bang (!) next to the WiFi icon for my home SSID - far out of range! Turning WiFi off and on again sorts this out, i.e. mobile data connects instead.
Anyone else?
It seems fine for me but bluetooth and wifi on at the same time causes some imense lag.

My Z5 has BT on 24/7 (paired with smartwarch 3) and no WiFi lag.

Don't use same name on the the 2 networks, and make the ipcams connect to the 2.4GHz band.
Eg: 2.4GHz is named [email protected] and 5GHz is named [email protected]_5GHz, also disable band steering (if your router/ap supports it) if the cameras are supposed to be 5GHz "compatible" but actually don't work on it.

For what purpose you are trying to use it?
connecting to internet ?
Sharing files with other devices in the network?
Why you dont just go ahead and connect to your router wifi connection?
If you are trying to get an connection to the world wide web, There is WiFi and 3G + 4G
so my question is :

Just for fun.
Experiment.
Xda is a developer site/forum so expect more thread like this.
It's actually a cool idea and I remember once trying to have it configured (USB_RTL8152) for an adapter I have (and for another phone).
By that time I could not get an eth interface to appear. I will ask if it can be configured in Moun_Kernel (which I use but do not build myself).
About why: I rsync entire device content (internal and external SD, including TWRP and Titanium backups) to a local server as incremental backup and sure a gigeth would be much faster than a shared wifi access point.
It's USB 2.0 so you won't get gigabit speeds from it.
If it works, expect to see 20-30 MB/s

One practical use of this would be replacement of router, as without power the router is useless, while with mobile, wifi can be available for a couple of hours as hotspot. For rural places like mine.

and the speeds would be better too compared to wifi hotspot. im going to try this out actually i mean, if connection could be shared trough that adapter to another device
I would like to confirm that I actually plug TP-Link USB to Ethernet UE200 to my Xiaomi Mi A1 and it work straight away, note that you need a good USB Type C to USB Type A OTG module to use it
