I have successfully set up OpenVPN client with NordVPN configuration files, but when I try using Private Internet Access configuration files, it will not connect.
I have tried both TCP and UDP, both CBC and GCM, both AES-128 and AES-256 and I have tried different servers.
The same server works fine using my Windows PIA client.
Is there a way of getting the whole log file? In the GL-iNet web UI, the log file keeps refreshing and only shows the last page so I cannot copy a full log to share here.
This is a subset of the log:
