open vpn with Xr500 netgear router - setup help

Post by Gridmstr75 » Sun Jun 12, 2022 8:30 pm

Hello, I have been trying to find a free open vpn that i can use to access my home network outside but also use vpn at home to protect the connection line. the router i have is a netgear xr500 gaming router and there have been some updates as of recenlty i noticed that we can use a vpn service now instead of a hybrid one which requires subscription. im confused on how to setup Open vpn. I have configured it on the Duma OS router xr500 enabled DDNS service which i use no-ip so that is good and created a hostname on the no ip site. after installing openvpn to windows 10 pc that i am currenlty on and hit connect i get this error:

Also how do i connect to my home network from my android phone and also want to setup a ibm laptop i have as well to connect from outside.


are there any tuts for this configuration?
