Apologies in advance... total novice here. Running windows 10.
I used OpenVPN Connect a few weeks ago with no problem whatsoever. However, now when I enter my credentials it says "connected", yet I can see it's not changing my IP when I click "go to". I've tried restarting the computer. Uninstalling/reinstalling. Right clicking the program to "run as admin". Nothing seems to work and I'm in a real pinch. Really hoping someone can help me out...
Thanks.

Help? Anyone?
In addition it now seems that when I connect to the VPN (still not changing my IP), it is also interrupting my internet connection.... constantly disconnecting and reconnecting.
Any ideas?

Same happened to me, I'm on windows 10, nighthawk R7000 at home. OpenVpn has always worked on my laptop and android phone. I'm on vacation at the mountains, and my vpn on the computer gets a successful connection, but Wi-Fi displays unidentified network, no internet access. Yet on my Android phone my vpn works and I can see the devices on my home network. On windows I updated to the latest openvpn version, downloaded the vpn files from the Nighthawk R7000 and put in config folder, renamed tap to NETGEAR-VPN. And I can get a successful connection, but no internet connection. Any ideas???

There has to be a setting I am missing on my Win10 Pro PC, because my VPN works on my three different Android devices using Open VPN for Android. I am using the same profiles on all devices. Help please, I can't find any settings in the OpenVPN GUI so I assume that it may be Win10 settings but I don't have a clue as to which.
