@FastDen I understand your frustration. The VPN Client feature is added to the models on a rolling basis and some get it earlier than others. The newer AX3000 (or its model is Archer AX55?) doesn't support VPN Client when released with the factory firmware, but it will support VPN Client very soon now, as I can confirm the new official firmware is already on the way, you should be able to get the update in one day or two. Please check your router web GUI or the Tether APP for the new version.

AX11000 beta firmware 1.3.0 breaks wi-fi settings after selecting (and applying) 160 MHz channel width. Instead of showing network parameters input fields are either empty of missing (e.g. channel width).

The official firmware for Archer AX55 that adds the VPN Client feature has been released and publicly available, it's suggested to check for the updates on your router web GUI or via the Tether app now. Please let the community know if there is an issue or if you have any further inquiries.
Note: The latest firmware is pushed to your device from the TP-Link Cloud Server, which could be delayed when publishing on the local website due to weekends or holidays. Don't worry, if you receive or can check for the new update, that is the official firmware and it's safe to install on your router. You can also wait one day or two, then check the firmware release on the local website if you're still uncertain. This is the official website for checking and downloading the firmware for Archer AX55 V1.0.
