Hello All,
My R8500 doesnt connect via OpenVPN on my iPhone 7+.
I have tried the following:
- Factory Reset & restored settings
- Re-downloading the VPN scripts.
- Upgraded to latest Firmware: V1.0.2.94_1.0.79
Here are the relevant Router Log entries:

Hello All,
I fixed my own problem. It had nothing to do with my router. It had to do with my AT&T Uverse router. I had some additional settings to tweak in order to open up additional ports and firewall settings so that my R8500 would be wide open on the internet. Long story short: My VPN is working again.
