Hi,
Netgear states they specifically do not support IOS with the OpenVPN server on the R7000, however, I would like to know if anyone has got this working. I have taken the base conf and certs files the OpenVPN server generates and loaded in the OpenVPN Connect. Using my Ios7/Iphone, when I connect i get that dev tun is not supported. Removing this from the config/ovpn file, it just times out trying to connect.
Any suggestions or am I plan out of luck
Thank you,
Chris

I asked the same question to netgear, amazon forum, and other places. No answer from anyone. Can't say I feel comfortable buying netgear routers or openvpn licenses in the near future. Are there any other vpn capable router which doesn't use openvpn?

I know DD-WRT supported a few options. I had my iPhone working with VPN under DD-WRT. I may have to leave the netgear stock firmware.

The iOS client supports "dev tun". It's "dev tap" that is not supported. This is an iOS limitation.

I've changed my .ovpn file to use tun and I now get the error: TUN_WETUP_FAILED tun_prop_error: one of ifconfig or ifconfig-ipv6 must be specified
.ovpn file:
