OK .

I finally got a VPN to work .  I reset the ER605 again and after I got it adopted, I tried the same old server configs / settings that I have already tried with no success .

Then I picked another free OpenVPN server, out of one of the several lists from which to choose, and downloaded that config file .

And when I tried it - wowwy wubbzy - it worked .  It was very slow .  I disconnected and then tried the windows client and it was also very slow .

Then I tried one of the others that I had already set up and it didn't work .  Then I tried the one that worked and it didn't work .  So, I messed around with trying different ones for a few minutes and then went back to the one that worked and tried it again and it worked again .  OpenVPN works as long as there are no credentials needed .

So, I doubt very seriously that rebooting the router was any consequence .  I think I just finally found a server that was alive and not full ...  I did a few pings; some were dead and I wasn't able to make a connection to some that were alive .

Anyway, I found out that it works .  I don't get any log messages though - I guess I need to enable an option in the log settings somewhere .

Connected from Florida to Washington State ->  Now I can be sure that TorGuard will work since you have already proven that for me .  That's going to have to wait for another time .  I am tired of messing with this for now .  ( I think I need to go on holiday )

much appreciated

Thanks for this thread, took me a while to find. I noticed SurfShark supports LT2P Protocol, has anyone tested it with success?

EDIT

Well, since the new firmware update - I am able to input my credentials into the OpenVPN client and guess what ?

It still doesn't work .

I am trying to connect to my NordVPN server .

Other generic OpenVPN clients works with no problem .

What do we have to do to get this to work ?

  @kablammy I've been trying too with NordVPN but no success
