XR500 OpenVPN issues
When setting up OpenVPN I am getting a client side error that reads...
No server certificate verification method has been enabled.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this?
I've checked...

Hi,
Have this problem also. Was advised to do a hard reset after a long conversation by Netgear advisor but still didnt work for me. Gave up in the end because they obviously dont know what there talking about and singing from the same hymn sheet.

Is this in the VPN Client area that you are seeing this?
Being able to choose an OpenVPN client is coming in the next firmware on Hybrid VPN (which allows you to apply your OpenVPN provider to any device, game or port range)

Hi,
No, this is the VPN Service which I think is on the Netgear side of things. Exporting certificate for everything else seems to work. Only the windows exported certificate is affected.
- Netduma-FraserNov 13, 2018NetDuma PartnerHi so just to be clear are you experiencing this message on the VPN Service in Settings on the router or the VPN Client you're using on Windows?
If the latter what is the VPN Client you're using for Windows?
Are you using a Static IP for your router or Dynamic DNS?
