XR500 with HybridVPN and NordVPN
Not able to get NordVPN with their OpenVPN config file to run successfully. I copied the config file, etc. as described. The information shows that the status is connected, but when I check for a DNS...
Nope not coached cleared all history and cache and checked on multiple devices including smart phone, game console, desktop, and laptop all still show my ISP ip address.
How have you setup the VPN Traffic Panel? Have you added any devices?
I have tried it both ways. i was under the impression that by not adding any devices to the side that anything connected to the router was protected by the vpn. I then tried adding my desktop and phone to the devices on the side and still shows on both of those devices the isp IP address. Furthermore, nordvpn customer support said that they don't support hybrid vpns, so not sure if this would affect that or not? I don't see how it could as that would be a router setting not a vpn setting.
- No that’s not the case, if you want it to a whole device and not specific applications/services on that device then you need to add it using Do NOT VPN these services. Try that and see if your IP has changed.
