I have flashed 45955 and the upgrade for my tp-link router. Configuration is complete. Now I want to establish a VPN connection on the router with NORD. They told me that 45955 was a beta version with flaws that prevented a connection to their server. I can't believe that no one has addressed the issue yet. Can anyone offer help? I can fwd a copy of the NORD chat if it will help.
Did you try the new build 46301? _________________ Segment 1 XR700 10Gb LAN, 1Gb WAN ISP BS

My experience with flashing many many DD-WRT builds over 4-5 years: if all your really running is OpenVPN client, most if not all builds will work for your needs.
You would be very unlucky to flash a build that will not work. 99.9% of problems with DD-WRT is user configuration errors.
Please post your VPN config and output remembering to keep your pictures no more than 768 wide, & removing your user/pass and any mac addresses for assistance. _________________ Netgear R7800 PPPoE Main Router

You believe? NordVPN's finest blame shifting support, and I am sure their config instructions are perfect too.
Why focus on a single build from a month ago? Upgrade once again, NordVPN support rep should be happy.
