Phenomenon Description:

 

When the router is configured as a VPN client (OpenVPN or WireGuard), you may encounter the following phenomena:

  • Failed to upload the VPN configuration file on the router, even though the same configuration file works correctly on a PC using VPN client software (such as OpenVPN Connect).
  • The VPN configuration file can be successfully uploaded to the router, but the VPN connection status remains stuck at "Connecting" and never establishes a connection.

 

Workaround:

 

We are currently implementing firmware improvements to resolve these unexpected behaviors across affected models.

@Solla-topee  The beta version is working well right now, though. So, when do you think the final version of these programs will be released?

Hi, 
Thank you for your attempt and feedback. However, we do not have information on when the Archer MR600 V2's official firmware will be available. It's recommended to pay attention to the firmware release info on our official website.
Best Regards
