🔍 Symptoms
- VPN won’t connect
- RDP says “Cannot connect”
- Connection works from one device but not another
- You get “network error” instantly
✅ Steps to Fix
1. Check VPN
If you use OpenVPN:
- OpenVPN Connect must be green (Connected)
- If orange or red → reconnect
- If it loops → internet firewall may block UDP 1194 or 443
2. Restart VPN
Close the app → re-open → reconnect.
Most connection issues vanish here.
3. Try a different network
Some corporate Wi-Fi networks block VPNs.
4. Ping the private IP
If you cannot ping the internal IP (ex: 192.168.x.x) → VPN is not passing traffic.
5. RDP fails?
Check:
- Your username (Administrator or your assigned user)
- Correct IP (private IP if VPN → public if no VPN)
- Firewall rule didn’t get removed accidentally
If still not working → contact support, we reset the RDP service or firewalls instantly.
