Yesterday after successfully setting up IpVanish with OpenVPN, I found this thread about ipVanish OpenVPN Setup and decided to update my .chk and .bin file for Netgear R6400.
The updates appeared to be successful and I even updated the CA Cert from the link in this thread, but now I get the following message in my SysLog and OpenVPN is not connecting

How and what do I need to modify to get it working again.

Thanks

Looks like the problem is with NTP. The time on your router has to match the VPN server you’re connecting to.
I do remember reading on the Marvel Forum about an issue with NTP on some of the latest builds. Not sure if this would apply to you, but may be worth checking into.

Try pool.ntp.org. This will automatically choose the closest, operational time server to you.
Also, make sure time zone is correct.

If you’re still having trouble connecting to VPN, try a different IPVanish Server. They go offline from time to time.

Thank you for everyone's assistance. As suggested I disabled OpenVPN Client, Saved, Applied, Rebooted the router. Waited 10 mins then Enabled OpenVPN Client, Saved, Applied, Rebooted. Here are the logs:

I've also noticed that the Time Stamp is 5 hours faster than my actual time zone
and I have it set to New York time

[ThirdStarr]

Here's what I'm having an issue with, no matter what NTP server, Time Setting, or IP Vanish Server and port I use the time is incorrect by 5 plus hours.

I couldnt get policy based routing to work,i used a cidr calculator to get the right ips.but since switching to kong r31575m,router has been rock solid and ipvanish has been up strong for 3 days. I think i will run the ipvanish app on the tv stick when the air mouse gets deleverd,since the vpn app block the remote app i use on my phone. Over all very happy now with router and ipvanish.

There is simply a good way to try various DNS servers including the open DNS servers.
