Routing internet through VPN to the client

Tue Sep 27, 2022 7:25 pm

Hi,
I have PPTP VPN setup on the Router OS which when a client connects to from outside network it gives access to the local network.
Right now it is like this:
1) The client has his own internet connection.
2) The client connects to the PPTP VPN which is setup on Mikrotik Router OS.
3) By connecting to this VPN, client has the ability to browse local data servers on the VPN's network but his access to the internet is restricted and he can not browse the internet.
What I want to do is route the internet traffic (which is available in the Mikrotik router side) through this VPN connection to the client so he has access to the local files and the internet at the same time.
Please help me.
Thank you

You may want to
/export terse hide-sensitive
and share the results here. Without this info it's really hard to predict what's wrong. Most likely your firewall is blocking traffic from VPN to WAN.

As a side-note - you may want to consider something more modern that PPTP, for example: wireguard (only on RouterOS 7+)
