While the DDNS Show Status on the RS300 Router failure is not resolved with the responses here I've created the following using one DDNS hostname
- added and configured No-IP DUC exe to my windows pc (in case I quit using R8000 router)
- activated DDNS in R8000 router to keep DDNS hostname current (in case my pc is down for an extended period of time - redundancy)
- activated DDNS in RS300 router then regenerated VPN packages
- downloaded windows and android zip files and unpacked them
- copied windows files to C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config, started OpenVPN and connected successfully (OPENVPN-TUN on RS300 attached devices)
- emailed android file to myself, opened on my cellphone, imported into OpenVPN and connected successfully, disconnected, closed wifi and connected successfully again
In conclusion, I have an configuration that works for me, many thanks to all who offered info and advice, BC_C if you have a updated img you want tested pm me
