Model: Archer AX55  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.5.10 Build 20251119 rel.50509(4555)

Good morning.

I'm encountering a problem. My router restarts when I try to access the admistration/tp-link panel while connected to the network via OpenVPN.
Remote management is disabled for security reasons.

I should mention that I upgraded from the AX1800 model, which didn't have this problem, and I can connect to the router without any problems via VPN.
