This Article Applies to:

 

All Omada routers.

 

Issue Description/Phenomenon:

 

After updating the Android OpenVPN Connect software to V3.4.0, the Omada Router as an OpenVPN Server, the phone can connect but the data is not available.

After updating the iOS OpenVPN Connect software to V3.4.2, the Omada Router as an OpenVPN Server, the phone can connect but the data is not available.

 

Available Workarounds/Solutions:

 

1. We recommend that Android users do NOT upgrade to the latest 3.4.0 OpenVPN Connect.

2. For users who have already upgraded, there are two suggestions as follows:

a. Edit the exported OVPN file, delete the no from the string comp-lzo no, or change from no to adaptive (comp-lzo adaptive) as below:

 

 

b. Downgrade your OpenVPN Connect to 3.3.4.

 

Thank you for your attention!

Hi,

 

Is that going to be final workaround? Or TP-Link engineers are working on some official solution?

 

Best Regards

What I have received so far is this and the suggestion is to report this to the OpenVPN team for a change.

IMO, I think this will be the final.

People can also download the Openvpn App by Arne Schwab, which works perfectly fine with Compression On and no alteration ir change of the config file.

 

I did pull my hair on my new phone till I found the solution in some forum elsewhere. In the official app, there is no switch to change this. Very annoying.

adaptive seems to work for me although not ideal because I wonder how long that is going to work since compression is a security risk it will eventually be blocked
