Wlink Router ddns address in Shenzhen
« on: 23 July, 2017, 07:08:04 pm »
So..
I have a Chinese router behind which I configured a Soft Ether VPN server. Using the SE ddns  I 'found' a Chinese IP address through which the SE client successfully Nat tunnelled to the server. The actual public IP address of the router is on the ee network, SE can tunnel through to that as well (this (useful) software must be every sysadmins nightmare).

Can anyone hazard what is going on? It's not my router, was supplied as part of a contract by a small name company who should have a reputation to uphold. They  are not #1 with me already as they provided a vpn solution that  is not fit for purpose. Clients on the router then wasted time port forwarding As the software on my client PC needs to use the remote LAN IP addresses was never going to work. .

my guess would be the "M2M management platform (optional)" service & the EE IP address is the IP address of the APN.

M2M management, That sounds benign -  but I am v. surprised my vpn got through it - 'twas a bit slow though..
