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.

How about the R7500v2? It's a nighthawk but no one seems to have mentioned it. It also supports OpenVPN server and is lacking the new certificate.

If I install the new firmware to address the MD5 issue, will I lose all of the saved DHCP reservations on my network and have to re-do all of those, or do they survive the upgrade process? How about the MAC address level content filtering settings?
Also, does the new firmware install erase and (avoid re-infection) of the stage 1 (the part that survives reboots) of the VPNFilter malware?

R6700v2 is also missing the new firmware. Please provide new firmware to support OpenVPN SHA256 certificates on R6700v2.
