I have an IPVanish account that works flawlessly however when I attempt to add a device through VPN client list it stays on connecting. I have an XE75 system used as the router. I've tried the TCP and the UDP option, both just say connecting. I've used multiple config files with different locations, same result. Updated the firmware, same result. This has to be an issue on Deco's end. Help please

Hi, Thanks for the feedback.

Under the current VPN Client page, is there an assigned "Server IP" but the "Server DNS" is blank?

Could you please send an email to support.forum@tp-link.com(please add the forum ID#710124) with the following details:

 

Wait for your reply and best regards.

I just bough a XE75 and have the exact same issue with Cyberghost VPN. Is there any solution yet? Do we need to modify the .ovpn file manually?

No solution as yet but I'm in the process of trying to figure it out, waiting on a third reply from Deco. I've sent them the Config file which they said was fine and now I'm waiting on the next step.

I have the same problem says connecting gives a server IP adress No Server DNS and all devices i can check the ip adress on are still displaying the current IP adress. How can this be resolved. It is obviusly a Deco issue.
