Model: Archer BE800  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.16

Hi everyone 

 

I have a BE800 and a nordvpn sub as my vpn. 

 

Since yesterday, out of the blue i am no longer able to put in a token and connect to nordvpn servers..

 

I have spoken to nordvpn and they claim nordlynx wireguard has never been supported? Even though I'm using it for weeks. 

 

Has anyone else encountered this problem since midday yesterday?

Hello, a quick update. Our engineering has contacted NordVPN support and confirmed that they have updated the configuration on their end. The reported issue should now be resolved.

 

Please try connecting to NordVPN using WireGuard again via your Tether app or the web management page.

Hi, thanks for posting question here.

To set up Wireguard VPN client, it is usually suggested to follow this guide.

To get Token from NordVPN, you may refer to this guide.

  @Marvin_S Hi

 

Many thanks for your post. I had them all working through the method out lined in the link and the tokens no longer work. 

 

I keep getting the following error. Nordvpn customer service are saying that they next provided support. 

 

Strangely enough, I had it working perfectly on my be9300 and be800 for weeks using the token method and it suddenly stopped working at all and gives the following errors when you select server after using the token. 

 

Strange

  @Marvin_S thanks for your reply. 

 

The only way to get it working from home the router is to use OPEN Vpn and download udp profile and set up server profiles separately for each vpn location from nordvpn. 

 

The token system was a lot more useful with wireguard but nordvpn are saying they don't support this. 

 

The open vpn works well but not as convenient as the token system for wire guard as with open vpn you have to set up a separate server for every location. :(

I have the same problem on my rourter BE1100pro, I have not been able to configure NORD VPN with wireguard from the tether app. The only thing I have been able to configure it is through the web, but it is connected without ip, blank dnss. Waiting for any solution .

@Ferxxo Thank you very much for the follow-up.

 

In that case, I’d like to escalate your issue to our support engineers for further investigation.

 

@AdamGSK Can you please also confirm whether you can save the settings by configuring the WireGuard VPN via the router web management page? If so, please check if you can connect NordVPN.
