Hello, I just bought GL-AR300M16 with the goal of routing all traffic to a VPN service.
I have tried expressvpn, surfshark, and nothing works, it just stay in “yellow” pending state for ever.
That’s what I managed to get from the logs when using expressvpn accessing UK.
Please note that I live in Egypt, and expressvpn normally works on my laptop and phone.
