    migrating from asus ac68u to 88u

    thanks. the nvram save/restore utility did the job. i ran it in migration mode. the only thing it didn't copy was the ca cert for the vpn client. rest was normal/expected (changing ssid name after the migration)

    some noob questions (openvpn/winmtr displays)

    hi, when openvpn is turned on. even though the destination ip to test (eg: bliz servers) are policy set to use WAN, the winmtr/pathping/tracert display basically returns no host name and no packets (using ipvanish). it only works as normal when i turn off openvpn how can I get around this?
