R7000 Can't connect to OpenVPN, Firmware 1.0.4.30

Not sure why, but the drop down does not have my model # which is R7000 not R6900.

 

I have been thoure the OpenVPN setup instrutions to use OpenVPN on the R7000 multipe times.  It seems really straight forward.....

 

However, I can't connect.  Firmware is latest as of 4/7/2016 (1.0.4.30), and I have tried rebooting the router.  

 

Final messare in the log is:  MANAGEMENT: >STATE:1460134043,WAIT,,,

 

Congig and Logfile below.

 

Any guidance would be very appreciated!

 

Config:

client
dev tap
proto udp
dev-node NETGEAR-VPN
remote ***************** (Blacked out for security)
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca ca.crt
cert client.crt
