Model: TL-WR1502X  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.15 Build 20240822 rel.53339(5553)

I have been trying to set up Express VPN on this router. I may be close as here is a Screen Shot.................... It just says 'Connecting'  and stays that way.

 

I could use some help, as I am pretty much a rookie with the VPN on Router Stuff.

OK, I fixed it. It was really not that difficult. I was working with Express VPN and they informed me

that I had to fill in the User Name and Password for Manual Configuration of the VPN. The fields that are marked as 'Optional'.

that I have circled in RED....... Not that difficult, if someone else runs into this problem.

Hi @Cut-Throat,

To set up TL-WR1502X as a VPN Client, please refer to the following instructions:
    1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the router.
    2. Go to Advanced > VPN Client and enable it.
    3. Add VPN servers in the Server list and enable the one you need.
    4. In Device List, add VPN clients that will access the VPN server you have configured.


Please confirm that you have set up the TL-WR1502X correctly as below: How to set up a VPN Server/VPN Client on your TL-WR1502X travel router

Yes, I have done all you suggested and my progress is displayed in my first post..... My question is

why does my Server say 'connecting' and never moves on from there?

 

Does anything look wrong in the screen below on my Travel Router.
