Topic: Problem by running Openvpn

Hello!

I have an virtual root server "out there" which has openvpn running. (installed by my self)
Now my plan is that openWRT connects to that openVPN so i can use its Internet Connection.
The conection drops an error but i can ping 10.70.0.1 and access several Services on root server.
But no internet connection on openwrt host!!
I Tried with the same Config on Windows and getting the same result! What went wrong here?
Is something blocked cause of the "virtual" Root server? Something wrong with my Config?
Thanks for your help!!

server.conf on root server:
dev tun
ifconfig 10.70.0.1 10.70.0.2
secret key.txt
port 1194


The Client.conf on Openwrt:

remote iamoutthere
dev tun
ifconfig 10.70.0.2 10.70.0.1
secret key.txt
port 1194
route-gateway 10.70.0.1
redirect-gateway
route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

The Problem is nearly done now.

- The VPN Tunnel is up

- Openwrt can ping the other side

- Openwrt can ping google.com

todo:

- clients connected to Openwrt cant ping other side

- clients connected to Openwrt cant ping google.de

maybe someone can help here?
