Insecure VPN on Orbi RBR850
I recently bought a Netgear Orbi RBR850 router with one satelite, and have set up the openVPN server. Unfortunately all of my clients (windows, smart phone and linux alike) all inform me that the server is insecure when I connect:
WARNING: No server certificate verification method has been enabled. See http://openvpn.net/howto.html#mitm for more info.
Is there any ETA on a firmware update to fix this? Or allow *any* settings at all for the VPN server configuration?

Re: Insecure VPN on Orbi RBR850
Hmmm. I simply ignored this warning. When I connect using the OpenVPN client, I connect to my Orbi LAN. I am 100% certain that's what I have connected to. When I set up other "secure" links, such as using VNC, this always happens the first time.
There is no "fix" coming. I hope someone will provide a more detailed technical explanation. For myself..... meh.

Re: Insecure VPN on Orbi RBR850
Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi AX (WiFi 6) products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi AX and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this "general Orbi" forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Please use this link to the main forum product list to review and choose where to make your posts.
