    Sometimes, after a few days, I may need to restart my VPN (client) connection. Is there any script for Asus wireless routers which will do this automatically? Restarting the router daily doesn't help. For example, I might restart it at 5:00 am, but if the VPN connection goes down at, say, 4pm...

    Open VPN Client upload / download swapped AC68U

    When using Open VPN Client on AC68U the upload and download are swapped over. This causes mostly confusion for statistics but can also create mysterious problems. I only discovered this when setting up the VPN and manually set the up/down bandwidth in 'Adaptive Qos / QoS / Bandwidth Setting'. I...

    Asus RT-AC88U AsusWrt Merlin 380.68 VPN Web GUI QUESTIONS

    OK, new to this router so have a couple of basic questions. 1. How do I get rid of "vpn client" entries? I have ended up with duplicate profiles, so want to tidy up. 2. The Web access to VPN clients can seem to become incredibly slow. Is this a known problem? Nick

    Wireless router with openvpn client support

    Hi, I am likely going to subscribe to nordvpn at my parents' house. Their connection is currently crap (promised 16mbit for 20 years, they are lucky if they ever got 10 across all the lying providers). I already have nordvpn and although they say no throttling, my 120mbit behind vpn becomes...
