    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.

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