HI there.
I have a RT-AC86U that I have been running stock ASUSWRT for a couple of weeks now.
But I've been having issues getting OpenVPN client to work - it says is connected, but I lose all internet.
After a number of email ping-pong with the VPN provider I have had the following response.
So with that in mind, id like to give it a go. As I understand it you can reset back to stock if I choose to?
How easy is this?
I am not an IT newbie, but I don't really want to spend 1/2 my life digging into configs to tweak and massage the opensource build so I have it working reliably.
So how easy is Merlin to configure? I am happy to dip around to optimise settings later, and learn some stuff, but I want it working relatively easily and not be without a working router for a couple of weeks.
Cheers

"Your logs indicate that OpenVPN is initializing normally, which means that the issues browsing are likely related to another issue with the firmware. I strongly suspect that your router isn't NATing LAN traffic properly for this to occur. ASUSWRT is quite locked-down by default, which makes troubleshooting difficult.
I'd recommend upgrading to Merlin"
