VPN Connection Issue

Hi

I am running Open VPN connect with my private tunnel account with no problems on my Galaxy Note 4. The problem is when I try to connect to my home network via the in built server on my Linksys WRT1900AC router:

1. I have set up a DNS account at No Ip which works fine.
2. I have configured the VPN server on my router and set up my user name and password. It really is quite easy and can't have messed this up!
3. I have imported the generated profile in to my android device and open VPN connect app
4. Entered user name and password
5. Get OpenVPN Authentication failed!

This is really doing me in - I have tried everything I can think of including just using the WAN IP address instead of DNS but still same message.
As I say at the start of the tread, I can connect fine to my private tunnel account so I know the app and open VPN account work fine.

Would be really grateful for some help on this please.

Thanks Tom D

Maybe you typed the password incorrectly ?

What version of firmware/openwrt is your router running ?
