Enabling VPN service on a NETGEAR router using a MAC OS computer
Hello, I am trying to enable VPN Service on my MR60 Router with Firmware Version V1.1.7.134_2.0.65. I followed this knowledge base https://kb.netgear.com/25389/Enabling-VPN-service-on-a-NET...
I guess there is no harm in changing the port number to 22 (ssh) and 23 (telnet), but it is a bit goofy. I would be more comfortable staying with the default port numbers (12973 for tun - tunnel and 12974 for tap - network tap) If the MR60 has telnet enabled, that might be confusing the OpenVPN Client.
It might be worth trying the actual OpenVPN Client for MacOS:

Doesn't sound like the tunnelblick user group was very helpful. Maybe OpenVPN users can provide more assistance?
Success!
I was able to connect using OpenVPN Client. Here is ssh to my Jetson Orin Nano.
