Hello,

I have a new router - Archer BE230 v1.0, Firmware - 1.0.3 Build 20240612 rel.13057(4555).
I have a subscription for VPN from CyberGhost.
I want to configure the router to connect to the VPN provided by CyberGhost.

I have prepared configuration files from an OpenVPN service provider (CyberGhost) according to:
https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/3763/#_CyberGhost

Then edit .ovpn manually according to:
https://www.tp-link.com/ca/support/faq/3338/

CyberGhost provides several options for used VPN protocol, including OpenVPN UDP/TCP and legacy OpenVPN <= 2.3.

The issue is that when I use the latest maintainable OpenVPN, the router cannot connect to the VPN, constantly showing Status - Connecting, assuming that the router cannot establish a connection.

But then I created a similar configuration using legacy OpenVPN <= 2.3, and the router successfully connected to a VPN.

What is the problem, the router doesn’t support the latest OpenVPN version?
Let me know if you need any additional information.

Please provide information on how to configure the connection to exactly CyberGhost using the latest OpenVPN version.
