Occasional Visitor
Hello,

My setup is currently:

1.Verizon Fios Quantum Gateway G1100 (connection shared via ethernet cord) to 2.ASUS RT-AC68U running asuswrt-merlin 384.7. I usually have Express VPN (OpenVPN) via manually setup running in the VPN Client section of my router via default ASUS Router firmware (which works fine).

After upgrading my default ASUS firmware to asuswrt-merlin 384.7, I'm unable to connect to the Internet with the OpenVPN Client Service State ON. <- Says Connected (Local: 10.xx.x.xx - Public: unknown). I'm using a ExpressVPN OpenVPN file. When I turn the OpenVPN Client Service State OFF, my internet comes back on and starts working fine!

WAN Connection Type: Static IP (which I set for my router)
DNS Server: Open DNS (208.67.222.222)

Custom Configuration (from ExpressVPN site)
remote-cert-tls server
remote-random
nobind
tun-mtu 1500
tun-mtu-extra 32
mssfix 1450
persist-key
persist-tun
ping-timer-rem
reneg-sec 0
# log /tmp/vpn.log


Is there something that I'm doing wrong here? Please let me know if there is anything I need to look into. I hope I'm not overdoing anything in regards to my setup.

Unfortunately that didn't work. I'm seeing this if this means anything

That would be my primary suspect. Enable compression in your client.

Here is the results when I open the udp.ovpn file from expressvpn in text editor (IMAGE). Should I add something from there in the ASUS Merlin firmware custom configuration?

Here is the expressvpn custom config settings

remote-cert-tls server
remote-random
nobind
tun-mtu 1500
tun-mtu-extra 32
mssfix 1450
persist-key
persist-tun
ping-timer-rem
reneg-sec 0
# log /tmp/vpn.log
