Hi,
I have a Netgear R8000 running DD-WRT v3.0-r50500 std (10/13/22)
I had Openvpn configured and was working well until a short time ago, and I used the OpenVPN on Andoid.
Recently, however, the app no longer connects.
For this I follwed the newer guide from link below and setup all the certificates again.

however while I get server: :CONNECTED SUCCESS
I still cannot get the client to connect to the server.
I have attached the log as I see it and ask if any one can help tell me what could be wrong.
On the server side set in the Additional Config:
verb 5
disable-dco
Show a screenshot of the server side: OpenVPN setup page and OpenVPN status page.
Show the log of the Client.
I noticed your WAN IP is 192.168.X.X so this router is not facing the internet.
Do you port forward from the primary router to the OpenVPN server router?
Does the primary router has a Public IP address (check if the WAN address is the same as the one from ipleak.net).
Please show the first octet (first three digits before the dot of the WAN address to check)
Thanks for your response.
I am attaching the files from server side, setup + status and client log.
I had port forwarding to the second router. To be sure, I deleted and added again, but still the same result.
The client log shows one attempt post re adding the port forwarding and additional config.
Not sure I fully understand this, but I set Hash algorithm in the dropdown menu to none.
I tried both with client.ovpn file with auth none and # auth none to have it removed.
Neither case produced a connection.
ECONNREFUSED means that the port you are trying to connect to is not open on the IP you are trying to connect to. This implies that either you are connecting to the wrong IP, you did not open the port on your firewalls successfully, the server did not launch successfully, or the server is using a different port. Try this:
I am having some issue with the router's DDNS which was working before. In this firmware version the path is missing so I am not sure where to put the URL.
