I have a server A running OpenVPN, an OpenVPN client B (a rooted Android phone as it happens) and a third party C (a laptop, tablet etc.) tethered to B.
B can use the VPN to access the internet via A; C can use the tethered connection WITHOUT the VPN to access the internet via B.
However, with the VPN on B active, I cannot load information from the internet on C.
A appears to log similar traffic inbound and outbound when B or C attempt to load a webpage, say, but the VPN on device B reports no inbound traffic when the connection originated from C.
Where should I look for packets being dropped, and what ip rules should I use to make sure they are passed back through the VPN and into the local network B <- C?
(I'll obviously post whatever further information is needed.)
Further info
Without VPN:
root@android:/ # ip route
default via [B's External Gateway] dev rmnet0
[B's External Subnet] dev rmnet0 proto kernel scope link src [B's External IP]
[B's External Gateway] dev rmnet0 scope link
192.168.43.0/24 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.43.1
With VPN:
root@android:/ # ip route
0.0.0.0/1 dev tun0 scope link
default via [B's External Gateway] dev rmnet0
