Using JuiceSSH on my phone, I’m able to connect to my device without any problems when I’m on my home Wi-Fi. However, when off WiFi and connected to my VPN, the server doesn’t connect. I’m still able to access the services it’s running, but can’t SSH into the server itself.

Edit: I thought I answered everyone’s questions but I’m not seeing the answers so I’m posting the info here.

I get the below message and nothing happens. Then about 60 seconds later Juice gives a timeout error.

ssh_socket_connect: Nonblocking connection socket: 98 ssh_connect: Socket connecting , now waiting for the callbacks to work

I’m using the built in VPN service in my router. It uses the OpenVPN protocol.

Edit 2: Using the same VPN config file, I’m able to access the server using Putty on my laptop. So I’m wondering if it is a Juice specific issue.

            Really strange. Probably done all this, but just run through it again make sure you haven’t got a typo somewhere or something.

            1.	Check Connection Settings: Ensure the IP, port, and authentication details are correct in JuiceSSH.
2.	Firewall Rules: Confirm the SSH port (usually 22) isn’t blocked by any firewalls on your network or server.
3.	Try another SSH App: To see if it’s a JuiceSSH-specific issue, download another SSH client like Termius and test the connection.

            (I’d probably start with 3, might narrow it down to a juice config problem, I’m not very familiar with juice)
