In theory it should but you will find that a lot, probably most, of such hotspots won't allow the VPN pass through. It depends on the equipment in use. You stand a better chance with your setup than with say PPTP mind. QNAP TS419P 4TB LMS7.7.2 *Living Room* - SB3 - Onkyo TS606 connected

Excellent! If I am right, your VPN net is on 10.8.x.x and both the LMS server and clients run an OpenVPN client instance to obtain an address on this network. This is fine and removes the need to renumber your LAN. You might need to change the OVPN server (and clients?) config files if the
