    I'm sorry but the internet crashed yesterday and before he came to himself I managed to fall asleep.
    Ip is 188.123.xxx.xx

    Nowhere on the router does it show me the wan ip address. Maybe because I'm set to dynamic? But it doesn't change the fact that my ports are blocked. I feel that there is nothing I can do here.

    You have your WAN IP marked in the box (in the example it is 0.0.0.0/0):

    So there I have 192.168.5.2/24

    Could this be a problem?

    If your PPPoE address is 192.168.5.2/24, it means you don't have a public IP address at all, you just go through NAT. So you cannot share any internet services.

    I suggest you use Teamviewer inside in Host mode and you will always have access to the PC inside the network ....
    You can't think of anything else behind NAT.

    External vpn server and both computers when connected to it will have file exchange

    Teamview is probably just a remote desktop, so it's not enough.
    when it comes to the second solution (with an external vpn server), I do not know if it is enough because if I understand it then connect both computers and then they work like one network but will I have access to the home local network?

    After all, Teamviewer has it all: file transmission, printers, etc. (you take control of the computer on your home network). Teamviewer is just a combination of two computers via an external server. The connection is relatively secure and if you set a good password, it will be ok.
    You can also buy a license or use it for private purposes for free.
    You will not be visible in the network, but you will not do this through NAT.

    If at least one of the sites has a public IP (preferably permanent), it is usually possible to VPN through NAT.

    digs up the topic, tries to establish a connection from this tutorial with a shared key https://www.itbridge.pl/baza-wiedzy/instalacja-i-konfiguracja-openvpn-w-windows

    I created the server all the data as in the guide, of course, giving my IP of the computer on which I put the server, the secret.key key is in the catalog config., on the hard-set computer IP, but I can't turn on the server, I leave the client issues for later, first I have to initiate the connection with the server to be active, ISP is UPC

    The whole test configuration wants to set up inside the LAN, only later I will try on the IP from the ISP plus port forwarding.
    Because at this stage I don't have to redirect ports while in the LAN?

    Have any ideas ?

    What is wrong ?

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around configuring a TP-Link TD-W8970 router for remote access via VPN while abroad. The user seeks to access their home network and utilize a Polish IP address. Various solutions are proposed, including setting up OpenVPN or PPTP on the router, using dynamic DNS services, and considering alternative routers with built-in VPN capabilities. The user faces challenges with port forwarding, public IP address verification, and ISP restrictions, leading to suggestions for using TeamViewer or an external VPN server as alternatives. The conversation highlights the importance of ensuring the server is listening on the correct ports and that the firewall settings allow for VPN traffic.
