Setup VPN on CISCO Router using OpenVPN for Peer-to-Peer network, can't find mapped drives or PCs
Using a CISCO RV-320 Router, setup the openvpn settings, and using OpenVPN GUI from openvpn.net as the VPN client software.
My computer works fine when connected to the LAN on a peer-to-peer network, seeing the mapped drive and the PC (as well as the other 2 PCs) that is sharing the drive (all Win10 Pro).
I can connect to the VPN, I can ping the router, I can open the routers web screen on the LAN's subnet 192.168.1.x, but I cannot get to the mapped drive, nor ping any of the 3 pcs on the ptp network.
I am using Symantec Endpoint SBE cloud version and used their tech article TECH227035 to open their recommended ports inbound & outbound and local and remote
UDP 500
UDP 4500
TCP 443
TCP 1701
TCP 1723
as well as OpenVPN's article that also showed these 2 ports and did the same both directions and local and remote
UDP 1194
TPC 943
I am stuck. I've contacted Symantec tech support, which pointed me to their tech article (which I had used), and searched openvpn.net, but no luck. The laptop I am using is on a different subnet 192.168.43.x to not conflict with the work subnet (though even when I remoted on a 192.168.1.x subnet, I could still see the CISCO router and ping it, but switched to my hotspot to get on a different subnet to rule out that conflict).

I use Radmin Server to access my computer and that works.
This was NOT an issue with the same setup but a Cisco RV042 router.
So I think it is a firmware issue and at this point no solution. It is not a Symantec issue either. I, too, have used my HUAWEI USB stick to rule out the IP subnet conflict.
