I had problems with the last release.
It turned out that all the certificates has been regenerated again.
Put the old ones in and it connected again.
Will check later if I can solve it like you did.
But it is weird that the router do not even display/register a connection attempt.
 
I did. Also tried to reconfigure OpenVPN from default. Didn't solve connection issue.
Seems your problem is on client side. Your server seems running.

Server seems running. Now I've tried with 2 other clients, Apple MBA and Lenovo Windows11 laptop. No connection.

Look at your client's log, it will tell you what's failing.

Clients on my wifi-network does connect but there is "no connection/data transfer". Clients on other networks doesn't connect at all.

I had problems with the last release.
It turned out that all the certificates has been regenerated again.
Put the old ones in and it connected again.
Checked the server cert and key and it had indeed changed after update to alpha2
I restored the old cert and key and restarted the vpn server, But still no go here..
As written before i do not even see a connection attempt in the router

Any ideas?

edit:
Tested another Android openvpn client now also (OpenVPN Connect)
Same thing and i get no clues for errors in that log either and nothing in router syslog or vpn status page.

Tested to disable firewall and now i see connection attempts in syslog but get:
Code:
Feb 26 20:55:12 RT-AX88U ovpn-server1[264035]: read UDPv4 [CMSG=8|ECONNREFUSED]: Connection refused (fd=9,code=111)

Disabled the firewall and clients now connect as normal. Re-eanbled firewall and clients don't connect. Definitely looks like a firewall issue.
I did redownload the config files before I tried this and re-setup the clients.

AX88U *2 and AX56U, smoorh upgrade from 388.1 to 388.2 alpha 2.
Ran it for 5 minutes and rebooted the whole system.

Seems new WiFi drivers have imoroved a bit the signal for 5Ghz.

So far, so good.
Did not see the release was on Saturday, was out protesting
Glad I entered today here ;)
Thank you

With firewall disabled, clients on other networks connects, but still no datatransfer.
"Advertise DNS to clients" enabled/disabled didn't make a difference.
 
Reverted to 388.1 for now.
Open VPN servers working again.
 
Firewall configuration is currently broken when setting up an OVPN server (proto is truncated when checking for udp or tcp).
