So I just purcashed the new Archer AX90/ AX6600 router at the recomendation of one of the mods on here because it supports VPN Client.
Great right?! Umm nope.
Got it all set up today, and tried to use it with my Nord VPN account. Chatted with them for 30 minutes to no avail, and the tech agreed I have everything set up correctly.
I like other people on there have used the way old now ASUS routers with natively suported VPN Client YEARS ago.
I again like other people saw that the AX6000 mentioned OPEN VPN and mistakingly purchased it last year thinking it would be a great upgrade for my old ASUS.
Only to find out that it didn't and doesn't support VPN Client.
OK fast forward to the AX90/ AX6600. That says that it DOES support VPN Client with OPENVPN. Which version of OPENVPN? Well no one seems to know.
I was EXTEMELY dissapointing to find out from my chat session with one of your TP-Link representatives that yes while this new router DOES support VPN Clent and OPENVPN it DOES NOT (!!!!!) support an encrypted version of OPENVPN?!?! Why?! This is beyond silly to incorporate this feature, and not have it support and enctypted connection, why even have a place for username and password?
Sigh, here we go again.

@Mytunes Hello, seeing through your comments, you want to say that it does not connect successfully VPN client with OPENVPN because it does not accept encrypted connections, understanding vpn connections well is to be anonymous or to change geographical location due to blockages in streaming services is one of its main uses In my opinion, in other words, we are giving away the money, that is, throwing the money away at TP-LINK if you are a user who uses VPN like me, talk to another user before and it will be costly to switch to ASUS but we will not lose anywhere. moment the money.

Correct, you can use VPN client with OPEN VPN just not as an excrypted connection even though there is a place for username and password.
This is the second time i've been caught by partial truth advertising, and it will certainly be the last.
Never ever had an issue with brand A, but liked the capabilities of the TP link products
So NORD VPN or other enctypted OPEN VPN users beware the current TP Link VPN Client with Open VPN DOES NOT support encrtypted connections.
Hopefully this is something that they can change easily and quickly.
Again this is on the brand new Archer AX90 AX6600 model.
