R6400v2 OpenVPN latest client versions not supported
I needed to reinstall my OpenVPN client (after BitDefender's VPN, which I don't use, updated and nuked my OpenVPN client presumably due to shared dependencies), and it took me a while to figure out that the latest versions linked on on the https://openvpn.net/community-downloads/ linked to in the router advanced settings GUI are no longer compatible with the R6400v2 AC1750 router. Something about TLS levels? I'm wondering if Netgear is going to send out a firmware update to restore compatibility to the most recent version of OpenVPN client (2.6.11)? Or at the very least the R6400v2 firmware should be changed to indicate in the VPN instruction not to use the most recent version. It concerns me that the VPN is not at the most recent level--I hope this is not a security issue...WNR2000v5 R2 N300 Firmware Upgrade Download Not Compatible
Product is the WNR2000v5 R2 (serial number 4KX1665H060EF) with Firmware Version V1.0.0.38 and I want to patch security vulnerabilities. When attempting to upgrade to V1.0.0.80, I get error: "This firmware file is incorrect! Please get the firmware file again and make sure it is the correct firmware for this product." Netgear support download site (https://www.netgear.com/support/product/wnr2000v5#download) does not contain any mention of "R2". Download available for WNR2000v5 is V1.0.0.80 and support site previous versions does not list V1.0.0.38 as available (listing skips from .34 to .42). What is the most up-to-date firmware for WNR2000v5 R2?R6080/AC1000 router connection
