AC3200, R8000 does not support "dev tun"

I am trying to use openVPN client in my iOS device to connect to my AC3200 router.

AC3200 does not support "dev tun" option in the ovpn setting.

I am unable to login to my VPN from iOS device.

However, I had AC1900 (R7000) which supported "dev tun" option in the ovpn setting.

I sold off my AC1900 and upgraded to AC3200 but it looks like I need to fall back to AC1900 because AC3200 does not "dev tun" option.

When are you planning to support "dev tun" option in AC3200?

 

Thanks,
Sriram

    I'd contact either phone support about this or send a message to Elaine, one of the forum moderators about this. Good Luck.

        Thank You.

         

        Here is the client debug log and it clearly points out the failure reason.
