I have configured a VPN Client to my paid VPN service like so:

 

But it does not show up when I view the VPN status window (I would expect to see it here?):

 

What am I missing?

Hi  @shawnolius 

If it does not display in the status, then it means the connection is a failure.

You should consult with the Surfshark forum and see if their VPN requires a modification to the file or it cannot work with the our router.

  @Clive_A Wow thanks for that feedback.

Odd UI design they decided to go for there...One would think a more intuitive design would be to have it show, and indicate a failure to connect.

But thanks, I'll see what I can figure out.
