OpenVPN Server Settings Page is Cutoff

Jeremy Frasier

New Around Here
Hi, I'm using a RT-AC66U and everythings has been working fine until a few minutes ago I went in to the OpenVPN server settings to turn my OpenVPN off and all I got was what I posted in the attached pic. Any ideas?

Thanks for the responses guys. I sent an email to Merlin and he was helping me get it fixed. The problem was a non alphanumeric key in one of my wired clients names in the DCHP.

Here are the instructions that helped me find the problem:
"If you open your web browser's error console, you will see a Javascript error. If you check the line with the error, you should see the string that breaks the code, preventing the page from fully loading. You can usually modify it through SSH to regain access to the webui - I will need to know what's the line causing the issue to be able to tell you which nvram variable to manually edit over SSH."
 
Here are the JavaScript errors I was getting:

var dhcp_staticlists = '&#60C8:D7:19:AE:3A:65&#6210.0.0.10&#62Linksys Wireless Switch&#600A:00:20:4A:11:FE&#6210.0.0.58&#62Krystal's Phone';

$j('#radio_VPNServer_enable').iphoneSwitch(vpn_server_enable,

$j('#radio_service_enable').iphoneSwitch(service_state_advanced,

<body onload="initial();">
 
As you can see Krystal's Phone was the problem and here is the command I was given by Merlin to correct it:

You need to remove that apostrophe on the DHCP configuration page. Enable SSH, connect to your router using an SSH client (like Putty or XShell), and run the two following commands:

First I ran: nvram set dhcp_staticlist="<C8:D7:19:AE:3A:65>10.0.0.10>Linksys Wireless Switch<0A:00:20:4A:11:FE>10.0.0.58>Krystal Phone"

Then I ran: nvram commit
Once done. I ran: exit and it started working correctly again.

Shout out to Merlin for the great firmware and the great support!!!!

Indeed! Where else would you get such service? Glad you got it sorted. And thanks for the precise feedback for future reference.
