Using Hybrid VPN with Torguard

I'm attempting to use Torguard with my Netgear Nighthawk XR500 Router. I'm requesting details for what type of config dumaOS needs.

 

I'm running Firmware version CR500 V2.3.2.114

 

When creating the config on torguard's website I have the options listed in the screenshot. I have attempted all options without success. 


Please guide me in a more concret way of understanding what config file is needed for dumaOS. Torguard is a major VPN provider. I hope there is more details how to use their service on Netgear routers.

    Could you also send over the Open VPN file that's generated with this configuration? I'm entirely sure if it will work with multiple VPN servers selected, could you see if you have more success just selecting one when generating the configuration file?

      It's as if it has a difficult time resolving us.atl.torguard.com:1912
