Hi, VPN Client with private IP address doesn't matter, if you use OpenVPN Connect software on your computer directly and add the same .ovpn file, will it work fine?
Please follow this thread for further troubleshooting: Troubleshooting VPN Issues on Deco
By the way, Deco XE5300 issue can be reported or discussed under Deco product section, if there is any further issue, it is recommended to comment on the above thread or start a new thread under Deco product section.

Hello, Archer AX50 doesn't support VPN Client feature and we don't have advanced information now about whether it will support VPN Client or not, it is recommended to pay attention to any new firmware update via its web GUI or TP-Link official website.

Can you confirm if the AX20 still supports VPN Client.
The link to the list of filtered products shows the AX20 and clicking into it shows 2 hardware versions - V1 & V2.
Neither of these show VPN Client in the Specifications table under Security, in the same way that say the AX55 does.
If you click the Support link, you can see a V3 hardware version, but it's not possible to see the specifications of this model on the product page.
I want to be sure that I can set NordVPN up on my router before I go out and buy another one, after being stung by the Archer AX10 😖
Edit: also the V2 is badged as End of Life, whilst the V1 version isn't 🤔
Edit2: on further inspection, the emulator for the AX55 V1 doesn't have an option for VPN Client despite the specifications clearly listing it as a feature! How is the average user supposed to validate the product they're purchasing has all of the advertised features when the resources on tp link website contradict each other?

Sorry to be unclear on the public specifications on the website.
As you can see from the below page, all versions of Archer AX20 (V1/V1.20/V2/V3) support VPN Client:
https://www.tp-link.com/home-networking/wifi-router/?filterby=AND%7C6112&page=2
I will report to the website admin to check the specifications and update the VPN Client support info.
