Hi
I need help with my C2600. I have serched google and found no solution.
I am trying to setup Openvpn. I have the lastest firmware on my router.
I have generated the config file and downloaded and used itunes to sync to my iphone 6s
when i open openvpn app I get the following error:-
Error loading profile:
option_error: option 'cipher' must have at least 2 arguments

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Update:
Looks like the file exported by the C2600 is missing information.
First part of the config from TP-Link:-
client
dev tun
proto udp
float
nobind
cipher
comp-lzo adaptive
resolv-retry infinite
persist-key
persist-tun
remote MYIPADDRESS 1194
There should be information next to the cipher. I used another working profile of a friend to correct. The profile can now be loaded. See below:-
client
dev tun
proto udp
float
nobind
ncp-cipher AES-128-GCM:AES-256-GCM:AES-128-CBC:AES-256-CBC
comp-lzo adaptive
resolv-retry infinite
persist-key
persist-tun
remote MYIPADDRESS 1194

@Florenz 

 

Hello, below is the instruction to enable OpenVPN on this router. 

https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/1544/ 

 

Please enable the OPVN server first and then generate the certificate. 

 

May it help.
