No OpenVPN client credentials can be entered in firmware 1.2.1 on ER605 v1.0?
From what I'm reading in this forum, it appears newer firmware, unavailable for the ER605 v1.0 hardware, is required to create an OpenVPN client that requires credentials? Username/password can't be entered?

V2 has what you need, but if you wait a few weeks, I think there will be an update to the ER605V1 which is roughly the same as what V2 has now.
this is something i think, i don't know
if it's urgent, you can buy ER605v2, this is also more powerful, but remember OpenVPN is super slow. 15-20Mbps on a good day.

@blackburied I guess another way to look at this is: what services allow a credential-less OpenVPN client (and have been tested for use with the ER605)?

@blackburied I tried setting auth-user-pass in the opvn file to a local file with credentials, but that still doesn't work. It says everything's fine, but the VPN isn't being used.
So, the real question is: what VPN services can be used with the OpenVPN client using the v1.0 ER605 router?

@blackburied Not getting any replies to this... so am guessing the OpenVPN client is useless on the v1 hardware as there are no services that don't require credentials.
If I bought the v2 ER605 hardware, would it work?

not OpenVPN, it's about the same. but if you use IPsec, this is much faster, I have some v2 devices with site to site and there the speed is about the same as the specs. I have not tested L2TP, but I would think it is also faster.
