    NT66u slave router - OpenVPN client dropping, then unable to reconnect

    Thanks for the feedback. Results from the last few days look promising. A search on a few of my old logs with dropped connections didn't indicate Torguard sending ' explicit-exit-notify '. VPN connection has been up and steady for over 40 hours, based on suggested setting changes...

    NT66u slave router - OpenVPN client dropping, then unable to reconnect

    See attached - extension renamed to .txt. The link below is a 'how-to' on their site for an Asus router, but contains slightly different parameters than contained in the openvpn file. https://torguard.net/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=216

    NT66u slave router - OpenVPN client dropping, then unable to reconnect

    Thanks for the reply and things to check. I've tried both the .ovpn file and a manual guide on the site that shows slightly different parameters. Interestingly, the only custom config line the .ovpn file adds is remote-cert-tls server - no others. I've just retried the .ovpn file, and made...

    NT66u slave router - OpenVPN client dropping, then unable to reconnect

    I've been trying to troubleshoot a recurring problem with my VPN router dropping its OpenVPN client connection, then unable to resolve VPN host and reconnect. My setup: Asus AC66u router connected to ISP (no VPN client). Asus N66u router connected to the AC66u, running an OpenVPN client to...

    Problem with cascading router setup

    The reason I opted for the cascaded router approach is that I have both wireless AND wired devices that I will be switching in and out of the router that has the VPN client running on it (Router2). This seemed to be the most painless way of having one router dedicated to the VPN connection...

    Setting up 2 routers on Asuswrt-Merlin

    It may be possible, with this use of a Guest SSID...may have to experiment with that at some point. In the meantime, I discovered that the RT-N16 does not have the VPN clients available using Asuswrt, and was forced to install Tomato on it instead. I've now successfully set up VPN on the...

    Setting up 2 routers on Asuswrt-Merlin

    I have seen from other posts that its possible to handle both VPN and non-VPN connections through a single router, using routing rules. The benefit of a second router would allow a PC to switch between VPN and non-VPN simply by which SSID it connects to. I've now been able to establish an...

    Setting up 2 routers on Asuswrt-Merlin

    Hi there. I'm trying to set up 2 routers behind the same cable modem, with the final intent of having one as a dedicated OpenVPN client router to a 3rd party service, and the other router with a direct connection to the Internet. Unfortunately I'm having a challenge getting the routers to...
