Hi @mobilelifeful,

can you explain a bit more what exactly is not working? First of are you having the same issue on wifi as on mobile networks? So management shows connected? Does the peer overview show connected peers? If not what state is showing on the peers? If you have peers shown whats not working? does pinging the netbird ip work? Do you have issues with routes?

using the ios client app for the ios device to connect. both (ios and macos) are one the same wifi network. after updating the sever endpiont on the ios client, then hit connect, it asks for user name and password, when I entered the same information as on the mac os client.

on the peer overview (), also showed connected with timestamp as:

	iPhone-adminadmin@www.mydomainusedWithNetbird.com	iphone-admin.netbird.selfhosted110.194.23.198	All	1 hours ago		v0.27.8

"does pinging the netbird ip work" should be ok, since it asked me to log in, which I did. "Do you have issues with routes?" not sure since doesn't have any option on the ios client app. Thank you again.

The only config difference that I can confirm is that: I limit only one exit node on mac os client, but can't have the option to limit only one on the ios client app.

I mean this overview on you iOS device:

This should show your other peers as connected. Alternatively you can run netbird status -d on macOS to get a similar overview.

How do you define that the VPN functionality is not given?

There should never be the case that the vpn functionality is not given because I am the only user(admin) of the selfhost netbird and all exit node is appied to all group.

So the issue is that the exit node is not working for you on iOS? Can you take a screenshot from the routes and the peers tab from your app while connected? I need to know what exactly is not working to figure out why the exit node does not work. You neet do thave the route set in the app and the connection to the routing peer must be available
