XR500 and PureVPN

Taking my first crack at Hybrid VPN.  So far, seems 'stuck' at 'connecting'  See screend shot.   LOGS refer to (at least) an authentication failure.  Not sure what else.  See screen shot. Thank you...

    I purchased my PVN license through Stack Social on a promo.  It came with a user ID and p/w.  Forgot p/w.  Reset it through PVN dashboard and it 'took it' but would not work.  New p/w would not bind to ID because it was issued by Stack.  Had to have PVN set a new p/w from their end and email it to me.  It cannot be changed.  Hope this makes sense.  It was sold by a 3rd party.  It now works w/ a w10 app and should now work on the router.  Have not tried it yet, but expect it to work.  Thank you for you time.  Will give a final update when I get it on the router.  It's a late night here.  Thank you again.
