2860 Dial in VPN not sending data on 4G was created by anparkinson
I can connect to my VPN on my Android phone if I'm out on another wifi or 4G but most times I get no or very little data through after I connect if I'm on the 4G network. It works really well on another wifi. My 2860 uploads at about 14mb/s so it's not an upload issue.

In my house I have a fast 4G connection (about 40mb/s) which works as fast as my wifi but the VPN still won't send any data, or sometimes a little very slowly.

Is there anything I can do? I'm not too up on VPNs so maybe I'm missing something.

Unless you've paid for a 4G data connection with a 'real' internet connection, your mobile provider is likely to be using carrier-grade NAT, which might be causing the problem...

If it's really important to you, consider getting a product like this:
