R7000 V1.0.7.10_1.2.3 and V1.0.7.12_1.2.5 OpenVPN cannot connect
My OpenVPN was working until I installed firmware V1.0.7.10_1.2.3 - unfortunately, I do not know what version I had before that. I tried resolving upgrading to firmware V1.0.7.12_1.2.5, but no succe...
Just one note - someone had taken it that my OpenVPN is now up-and-running, but intermittently. In case anyone else have misunderstood me, let me clarify that this is not the case; rather, the hiccups I encountered was only during the initial Restore-to-Factory post above but have went away (without an explanation).
I am however going to test this new setup over the next week or two, and if all goes well, I will proceed by classifying this thread as "SOLVED". Until then, I will leave it as is.
Just an FYI.
I downloaded and installed the following firmware R7000: R7000-V1.0.7.10_1.2.3.chk
Then I installed the following OpenVPN on my Win 7 64bit OS laptop: openvpn-install-2.3.14-I601-x86_64.exe
I then downloaded and copied over the four OpenVPN config files from the R7000 to the laptop
No Success in connecting.
Short of erasing all configurations from the R7000 using the following steps (which will take time to re-setup), I am at a loss:
1. Click ADVANCED > Administration > Backup Settings.
2. Click Erase.
