Help with Asus RT-AC68U

[Snerk13]

Hello,
I am new to trying to use OpenVPN, I would like to use it with my desktop with Win 8.1, a laptop with Win 7, two android tablets and two android phones. My router is an Asus RT-AC68U, stock firmware 3.0.0.4.378_4585. The only progress I have made after reading for what seems like days is that if I turn off the private profile of the Windows firewall I can open the client on my desktop but when I do I cant access the Internet in any way including going between the pages of the router configuration. Any help would be appreciated, I have very little experience in this area and everything I read seems to be a different fix. If I can get the desktop to work maybe that will be a start for the others that this is really focused on. Logs below, I hope that is what is needed:

Thank you.

Please post your server and client config files.

FYI: Your current logs show a working vpn connection.

This comment:

is a problem ..

Windows firewall is fairly complicated and unfortunately this forum does not provide free support for Microsoft. You are going to have to read a lot more M$ flannel and learn about windows firewall.

Oddly, the manual for your router says the router has a PPTP VPN not openvpn but your server log does show openvpn ..

Thank you for the reply & time Traffic. I am sorry, I thought I did post the server and client logs, unless you mean for all my devices. I thought I would try to fix them one at a time. My Asus router does have an OpenVPN tab next to the PPTP tab. Even though I got it to work, it was only partially since I cannot connect to the internet or even open my router to view what is going on while the VPN is operating, I am hoping that is something that can be fixed. As for the firewall, I can keep reading as necessary and turn it off if there is not an easy fix.

Thank you for your help, for some reason my reply from Wednesday never was approved, if it shows up sorry to double reply. I had thought I did include the logs needed, I was starting with my desktop before working on the next device. I can post all of them though if that would be more beneficial. If I posted the incorrect logs please let me know, I am not fluent in this area. As for the firewall I can disable that if necessary and work on that separately. My main concern is getting internet access when the OpenVPN client is active.

I presume you mean this:
