I am having issues establishing a connection using OpenVPN Connect on my iPad. I have been connecting via OpenVPN using Viscosity VPN on my Mac just fine, but when I try to connect using OpenVPN Connect on my iPad, I keep getting a failed connection error. I have an Asus AC68U router and I am using the built-in OpenVPN server for my secure connections. I have posted my client.ovpn details as well as my server log below.

Any help given on this issue would be great!

Client.ovpn Details:

Hello,

It seems that we have the same issue (I'm here topic15760.html). I'm using a different openvpn though but also integrated to my router...

For me it works on windows with OpenVPNGUI v2.2.2 and v2.3.4 (didn't tested on mac os x but I guess yes) but doesn't work on iOS / Android with OpenVPN Connect latest version official from App store / Google Play... Is it a bug with OpenVPN connect ?

Any help from application developpers ?

Can anyone provide some assistance with this?

Thanks!

As I mentionned on the other thread, it works on Android with the application "OpenVPN Client Free" !! So if you have the opportunity to test with an Android device please confirm that it also resolve your problem !

Can't wait for an update and finally have OpenVPN on iOS !
