Firewalla Blue and Hide.me VPN

VPN
1

I’ve been playing with the VPN Client and trying to get the 3rd-Party VPN to work with Hide.me VPN. Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? I have downloaded the .ovpn file for linux and applied it but something isn’t right still. Here is the .ovpn code:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote chicago.hideservers.net 3000
cipher AES-256-CBC
auth SHA256
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
mute-replay-warnings
verb 3
auth-user-pass
reneg-sec 900
remote-cert-tls server
verify-x509-name "*.hide.me" name
tls-version-min 1.2

<ca>
 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
(Cert info)
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>

<tls-crypt>
-----BEGIN OpenVPN Static key V1-----
(Cert Key Info)
-----END OpenVPN Static key V1-----
</tls-crypt>

It looks like it should work, but doesn’t.

Anyone have any experience with this or getting Hide.me VPN to work Firewalla?

Thanks!

did you look at this long doc and the thread behind it? lots of information there https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023379953-VPN-Client

I did, but that doesn’t seem to really be very helpful in my paticular case. When I try to connect to the client VPN it does one of two things:

  1. Does not connect or

  2. Connects and then shortly there after locks up my entire home network requiring me to reboot the router and firewalla (and occasionally some other IoT devices if they don’t respond.)

You should post a question on that page, we often have other people have tips for different types of VPN’s. And there are just too many of these things out there, often we rely on our generous supporters to help out.
