I notice you have this log entry:

“Linux ip -6 addr add failed: external program exited with error status: 2”

I ran a Google search on that message and came up with this:



Have a look at the reply from AirVPN to the first post and see if that helps.

Hello,
I suffered that same error some time ago.
The only thing is that your vpn client is trying to get a ipv6 address, while your ISP doesn't suport IPv6.
I solved it by commenting on VPN client's config the following line:

Code:
# setenv UV_IPV6 yes

I hope this helps.
Regards.

Thank you Martinr and also Juanantonio.
Enabling ipv6 in the router fixed the problem.
Without the benefit of Martinr's reply my next step would have been to contact Airvpn. Nevertheless your input has saved me a lot of time and I am truly grateful. Thank you again.

Enabling ipv6 did allow the ovpn file to install successfully. A problem arose because my isp's DNS also showed up on an ipleak test. In turn the website redirected my browser back to my home country website rather than to the website where the vpn server was located. Disabling both ipv6 on the merlin f/w router and setting "Accept DNS Config" to exclusive did not fix the dns leak. However once I also changed the config file to "setenv UV_IPV6 to "no" the dns leak stopped.
So in case others have this problem with "region blocking or filtering websites" one needs to either set ipv6 to on (or else edit the OVPN config file setenv comment) to install the the ovpn file initially in the router. Then, once installed, to stop the dns leak, one needs to disable IPV6 in the router settings and also change the setenv setting to "no".

Hi,
I had this same problem and I solved it by adding an entry on DNSDirector with the DNS addresses of my VPN supplier (both ipv6 and ipv4).
I didn't disable ip6 on the router because I didn't need to.
Best.

I hadn’t noticed that option in dns director. In my case thought that wouldn’t help because my vpn client ovpn configuration files are at a national level. eg client 1 is “USA”. So when this is enabled it will connect to a specific server and dns in the USA. However there might be twenty or more possible servers it can connect to so the server dns ip address is unknown it after the connection is made.

Thinking about all of this, my own fix does work but it is clunky and inelegant. I might contact my vpn provider to see if there is a simpler or neater solution.
 
My VPN provider says "This is a very good method. It will no longer be necessary, we think, when the Asus Merlin environment will be able to tunnel IPv6 over IPv4 properly, which it currently can't".
 
By the way, you can get rid of those DNS leaks also by activating 'Kill Switch' on your Open VPN client's configuration.

The kill switch only closes the connection to vpn connected devices if the vpn tunnel becomes inactive. It has no effect on dns. In my situation the kill switch was always active in the various configurations yet the dns leaks continued until made the above changes to the ovpn configuration files.
As an aside i since discovered that my vpn provider has a configuration generator tool whereby you can choose to generate an “only ipv4” ovpn file. I tried this. Using the resulting “ipv4 only” config file works perfectly, avoids the earlier ipv6 installation issues and tweaks, and tweaks needed to the ovpn config file to eliminate the dns leaks.
