Model: Archer BE550 Pro  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20241115 rel.24012(5553)

I just bought this router excited to use vpn client as in my older and slower Asus router but it does not seem to be compatible with Private Internet Access. Is there VPN Client compatibility for Private Internet Access? I generated and download every openvpn config files they offered and none of them work. Their less secure settings connect and I can see data transmitting but not receiving. Their more secured settings don't connect.

Hello@Graveyard ,

Thanks for contacting our community.

 

Is the VPN working fine now?  We have not received any clear indication that there is any incompatibility with setting up the PIA OpenVPN client on our routers. Would you mind saving the OVPN file?

Then please send the OVPN file to local support's email with the following information:

Hi @Joseph-TP 

 

No I have not been able to get it to receive data. It seems so close, like my DNS settings are off or something. Thanks for the tip on the submission. I'll get on it.

 

Edit: I submitted two tickets / messages. The first submission, I forgot to include reference to the forum and your subject header as you mentioned. I corrected it with the second submission.
