Out of curiosity how long should the TLS take to timeout? I've been unable to connect any of my android devices to VPN because TLS keeps timing out. Here's the log entries:

This specific block of logs was from my tablet on WiFi, but I get the same behavior on 4G with my phone. I did have the phone connect up last night after trying 6 times, so something seems a little wonky. Thoughts?

Thanks!

That's is probably "Extra HMAC Authorization (tls-auth)" direction. Client should be 1 and server 0.
Android have problem with Mashmallow and openvpn client.
You must defind your DNS in your phone and turn off powersavings to get it to work.
