Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: V1.1.1

Hi all,

I am trying to setup OpenVPN on my TP-Link TL-R605 router 

The only sections under VPN I see are: IPsec, L2TP, PPTP and Users.

Where did OpenVPN go?

Can anyone give some guidance?

Thanks.

@MauriceGee 

 

You may watch this video to see how that's done.

First part is for L2TP VPN and from 3:33m is for OpenVPN.

You should make this configuration in controller mode - configure the TL-R605 through Omada Controller (check this answer).

If this was helpful click on the arrow pointing upward to make it blue. If this solves your issue, click the star to make it blue and mark the post as a "Recommended Solution".

@terziyski @TP-Link 

For obvious reasons (adoption issues, less functionality etc. etc.) I am not using the Omada controller software.

I want to do this setup via the Web UI directly on the Router.

Well that's the catch,  @terziyski 

I don't want to use the Controller mode.

Surely there should be a way to configure OpenVPN server in standalone mode?

 

@TP-Link Can I please have your feedback?
