FYI, I documented the steps to required to replace the certificates here. Unfortunately it the steps are written for users of Windows, but it also uses mostly cross-platform OpenSource tools and explains what's going on so I think it should be pretty translatable if you don't have access to any Windows boxes.
Just posting this so you have at least one go-forward path.

I will never again purchase a Netgear product... No word from Netgear for weeks leading up to today.
I called their support line and this is the "first time of being made aware of the issue". She made it sound like the router is functioning as designed and it's an issue with my iphone. The only thing they will do is replace the router (you pay shipping) which we all know is not the issue.
I'm extremely disappointed and I'm now in possession of a very expensive router that doesn't do what I purchased it to do.

For R7000 beta firmware is available to public with RSA OpenVPN support. I've checked it, OpenVPN is working now.

I successfully upgraded from 1.0.6.40_1.1.90 to hotfix 1.0.9.30_10.2.33.
Upon reboot you will see the following message and it will then obtain an updated certificate:
After this is completed you have to go to the VPN tab to download an updated configuration for your devices and install them.
