Hi there!
Currently i'm facing a problem with OpenVPN on the TP-Link Archer C5400.
I connect to the OpenVPN server using the OpenVPN GUI tool, and this usually works fine for about 2-7 days.
After this period the OpenVPN GUI tool shows the following errors:
Tue Mar 12 09:54:16 2019 WARNING: No server certificate verification method has been enabled. See http://openvpn.net/howto.html#mitm for more info.
Tue Mar 12 09:54:16 2019 TCP/UDP: Preserving recently used remote address: [AF_INET]00.00.00.000:1194
Tue Mar 12 09:54:16 2019 UDP link local: (not bound)
Tue Mar 12 09:54:16 2019 UDP link remote: [AF_INET]00.00.00.000:1194
Tue Mar 12 09:55:16 2019 TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity)
Tue Mar 12 09:55:16 2019 TLS Error: TLS handshake failed
Tue Mar 12 09:55:16 2019 SIGUSR1[soft,tls-error] received, process restarting
Then i need to stop and start the server and usually it works again.
Does anybody know why this error occurs?
I am using this method as my only external entry to the network, so this method has to be reliable.
I already have added a NTP server to synchronize the routers time with.
Thank you!

Please provide some basic info, then we will proceed:
1. Are you configuring the OpenVPN server on the C5400? What kind of VPN Client software you were using on the local PC or phone to connect to the server?
2. Please show us the whole system log on the C5400 with the TLS handshake failed error.
3. Refer to the guide to check the setting on the C5400 router and the client device if the OpenVPN connection doesn't create successfully:
