      I never have a problem with my VPN on my iPhone.

      Here is my config.

      set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication local-users username jbusch password 'SmegOff'
set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication mode local
set vpn l2tp remote-access authentication require mschap-v2
set vpn l2tp remote-access client-ip-pool start 10.254.203.2
set vpn l2tp remote-access client-ip-pool stop 10.254.203.10
set vpn l2tp remote-access dhcp-interface eth0
set vpn l2tp remote-access dns-servers server-1 8.8.8.8
set vpn l2tp remote-access dns-servers server-2 8.8.4.4
set vpn l2tp remote-access idle 1800
set vpn l2tp remote-access ipsec-settings authentication mode pre-shared-secret
set vpn l2tp remote-access ipsec-settings authentication pre-shared-secret SmegOff
set vpn l2tp remote-access ipsec-settings ike-lifetime 3600
set vpn l2tp remote-access ipsec-settings lifetime 3600
set vpn l2tp remote-access mtu 1492

      The IP range is not used elsewhere in my router at all.

        This was working properly until we switched to ATT. It is still properly reaching the router and also authenticating correctly to the radius server. It's just after connecting it completely craps out.

          Switching to AT&T; what is the new carrier equipment? Did you go from cable modem to fiber?

              Whe we switched one of our sites from then Cox cable modem to AT&T fiber we had a similar issue with our Cisco ASA's (at the time) not establishing the tunnel consistently. We had to turn on WebVPN on the ASA (wasn't on before) and turn off NAT-T then it established fine. Not sure of similar setting on Ubiquiti devices. I'll check my notes was years ago may have another setting to try

                So two further days of usage and the vpn has been working properly again. At the end the day, I had reverted back to original settings so everything just apparently started to work back on its own??

                Really not sure what was causing the issue.

                  That is irritating that you don't know for sure what the fix was. Hopefully, it remains solid.

                    This same issue is happening today once again, VPN is connecting properly but I can't properly reach anything properly on the local lan or the internet.

                      You should just buy a new edge router to exclude any hardware issues.

                        Valid option. The cost is minimal compared to the time you are spending.
