Makes a good SSL connection to Draytek routers... Hey the drop box is still there for OpenVPN... Incidentally why did you remove OpenVPN as an option?
★★★★☆Richard Neighbour· Sep 7, 2017
Once the router is properly configured this makes it really easy to establish a VPN connection over SSL. The fun bit is getting the router sorted - easy enough following the guides on their website (registration needed for some) for the very simple designs shown if you have some clue about IP networks, but if you have a more advanced design than it's a lot more fun and at times a lot of router restarts are needed so if you already have this in productive use there will be some disruption to users. I'm using a mixture of phones and tables running Android 6 and 7 and an internal CA (based on XCA) to create and sign the required SSL certs. I've found one minor issue with the optional server validation when on Android 7.1 but otherwise this seems pretty solid.

Use it with pptp to connect back to my router and it works well. Now moving to WireGuard as that IS now available on the newest Draytek firmware for the 2865 router, shame the app doesn't support WireGuard.

Works so much better than the native Android VPN. Unfortunately can't handle when you move from Wi-Fi to mobile.

Problem I have is that this app only opens an SSl vpn, which my 2820 draytek seems to not support. For other VPN options, I will have to look elsewhere. Native Android (moto g5) doesn't want to talk ipsec/l2tp to my router either, although Ptp works.

Had to uninstall because using dns set on the vpn left dns lookups broken even when vpn disconnected.

Doesn't work on Android 5 Apart from not working on Android Lollipop, the UI is awkward. Draytek has had problems with Android VPN for years and this does a little to help, but you get the feeling they don't really care.

Works but then won't stay closed. I keep finding it reconnecting to my network even when closed!

VPN not connecting to DrayTek. Was working fine. Why on earth does it not show an error message explaining why it won't connect ??
