Question about pfSense Site to Site VPN
-
@JaredBusch yes Sir i'm using OpenVPN, and feedns.afraid.org as DDNS, and i'm using the built-in DDNS updater in pfsense,
-
do you mean by not relying on DDNS that i have to change the IP myself in each IP change ????
-
what about having each box a client and server in the same time, Mr Scott don't like this idea,
what about you Sir -

That's an option but I would prefer the DNS delay.
-
How often does your IP address change?
-
sometimes one week, sometimes 4 days, it depend
-
-
currently i check every time my public ip to make sure that it is still fixed to make sure that the 2 office are connected, i wish to make this happen automatically but unfortunately DDNS despair me

I assume that you don't have the ability to get static IPs? Have you looked into Hamachi?
-
@scottalanmiller yes, and also our ISP makes it difficult to possess static IP, he force you to buy a subnet of 8 static ip, and the price is very expensive, because here in qatar exist only one ISP (landline provider) for this reason they do what they want,
-
and also they force you to change you current wire installation and make a new one

Wow. Is it a government controlled monopoly or as the market just not created competition (yet)?
-
@scottalanmiller exactly, it is a government ISP that don't have any competition, so they have freedom to do what they want

I see. That is unfortunate that instead of working to enable business that they use it to make money via the ISP directly. Iceland does something similar with a central ISP but provides high speed, great access to everyone.
-
hhhh, can you imagine our ISP max ADSL bandwidth
-
Hamachi would be "low" cost and should do what you need. I prefer Pertino but in your use case, gateway to gateway, it doesn't have an offering yet.

They are still using ADSL? That is horrible. Qatar is such a rich country, they could go all fiber overnight and really enable business there. The opportunities being missed are tragic.
-
currently they are working in fiber optic, but only in some region not all qatar

Are you outside of Doha?
