Hi,

Would you mind posting the section of the *.ovpn file that contains all the settings? (without keys, certificates, domain name/IP address)

That might give TP-Link support a clue.

Also I can add that the upload is throwing an error but it's unhandled by the router admin site and isn't shown but it is posted to the browser console.  

cant post the error due to forum blocks for some symbols so here is a screen. 

Also 2 warnings about deprecated features.

I just did a little test. I took one of my own *.ovpn files, removed the settings section and replaced it with what you posted. It loaded into my Archer AXE75 without any problem.

Can you please check if the certificate section of your *.ovpn file follows the format below? Since you use password authentication you might not have all the sections, but still check if the format with the < > and / is correct.

<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>

<cert>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</cert>

<key>
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
</key>

Yes all those exist, I have also tried edit it manually but same. The site says that the required field isn't filled even though it is.

  @Ungineered 

Does your AX55 actually take any *.ovpn files at all? Have you already tested with other files? In case you don't have one at hand, then download one from https://nordvpn.com/ovpn/ or similar websites.

  @woozle 
It does not, I tested two different files, nordVPN and a ovpn generated by the AX55 itself which I also tested on a different client and that works, so the OVPN server works but the client page wont accept any .ovpn file.  

I think the webpage is broken, the script that should set the field as filled when a file is uploaded doesn't trigger it, guessing that the page error regarding JSON is the problem but might be something else. Been awhile since I messed with pages and scripts so not sure if I can force the right field to acknowledge that it has a file, or if it is a upload failure.

Will try it and report back.
