It’s been fine for me for over a week. Actually faster Wi-Fi speeds on the alpha than on stock 384 which is interesting.
 
Got my AX86U on black friday deal yesterday.. Replaced my old AC68U. Running Merlin alpha on it now with VPN Server and VPN client. Everything rock solid so far!

Have you tried with two clients running at same time? and if you did, did it work

No. But aparently one doesn’t even work :/ i have policy rules to pipe all traffic from 3 clients through vpn and bliock if tunnel goes down. I can turn tunnel on and off and notice no difference - it’s just as if the policy rules aren’t in effect.

I have one working with policy rule when I add second one everything is messed up and I lose wan connection and internet connection icon show unconnected.
Seems all WAN routing rule is missing in routing table

Following because I have the same issue with my VPN clients. Policies don't work at all. My whole WAN connection breaks when enabling VPN. Previously I could enter 0.0.0.0 in the destination ip but that translates to an empty string now. But that might be a functional change.

Yeah, Saw that, installed it and still facing the same issue. As soon as I enable policy rules, the VPN is unable to connect (unable to resolve purevpn's host) and my whole internet stops.
