ettescott Ive been connecting to privateinternetaccess' vpn (PIA) using their client but wanted to use the openvpn GUI client instead. My brother has configured his router to use opendns' familyshield dns and whereas the PIA client connected just fine, the openvpn client won't connect and times out. Temporarily disabling opendns on his router solved the issue but id like to connect with openvpn client regardless of the routers dns settings. Thanks
Pippin Try adding dhcp-option DNS Open.DNS.IP1 dhcp-option DNS Open.DNS.IP2 to you OpenVPN *.ovpn file.
