Hi guys

Looking for some advice from a Mikrotik wizard. I am trying to setup a VPN that will allow me to play games with a few of my mates, but using the games LAN functionality.

I have setup the VPN and they can dial in. Once connected, they can ping my computer, access shares etc. However, when searching for the LAN gaming that I’m hosting, they cannot see it, and vice versa. Some searching has told me that this is because the VPN client receives a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255, hence cannot successfully hear or send the games broadcast.

I believe there is a way of routing these broadcasts, but not sure how, and help?

We have tried a few VPN applications that did not work , but I would like this to work via my Mikrotik
