My VPN provider is upping their encryption in the next few weeks and I was able to try out the new OpenVPN configs. After troubleshooting this problem with them and coming up with nothing I thought I would try here.
He told me they are now using TUN with 254-AES. The problem is my speeds die completely when using these new configs. I have ping with little if any packet loss but websites will just not open. With older configs things work fine.
I was hoping someone could take a look over the configs and my settings and see if I am doing anything wrong.
I am using viscosity on a Mac with ML 10.8.5. Below is the new config, trace route whilst connected and viscosity settings.
