Model: Archer AX73  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20241031 rel.70279(4555)

Hi,

I've configured the OpenVPN server on the router (as I've done many times with previous models). When I launch the client from a remote device, be it a phone, computer, etc., it connects perfectly, but that's about it. I can't access local network resources, the internet, or the router's local IP address to enter the configuration. I've discovered that if I downgrade the firmware, it works for a while until it returns to the same situation again. When I upgrade again, it fixes itself, but only momentarily. Any thoughts?
