I cant get jellyfin to work but yesterday i noticed i can sucessfully go to web gui for the router outside my home trough my dns-adress with port 8443.How did you find this out if you haven't got the OpenVPN client on your phone?
Accessing your router's web interface does not necessarily mean the VPN is working. It could also be configured to allow access from the outside.

But when you asked me to test internal ip from phone i downloaded ovpn app and tested it on my phoneSo what's your plan to access your private VPN from the outside, and what is it that doesn't work?
I had wrong about routers gui. I can access it thrue wifi with the the dns adress instead of internal ip. Not outside home.
And i know a device is thrue the vpn client on the router. Because all connection is set for that. And If I go to whatsmyip.com i see the ip is thrue ovpns and not my regular wan ip
My plan is to have working vpn on all devices and when im traveling / is outside i can access jellyfin due my asuscomm.com ddns adress. However this is not working.
As an alternative i have tested vpn-director and choosed my mac mini outside the setup. Then jellyfin works great but then i dont have the vpn for that computer
