Nord VPN connection failed and fix

If your nord vpn connection on the router failed today, don’t be surprised.

Nord has VPN specific username and password, which is different from your Nord login username and password.

Before you may be able to login using both. But today you can only use the vpn specific username and password.

This is the correct one
Click Nordvpn and go to the bottom, find “Set up NordVPN manually”,

Got hundreds of inquiry about this today.
Nord support may be even busier.

Do you have the admin ability to pin this thread to the top of the forum/cross all the threads? What about swapping out that header banner about the GL-M2 dev board & graphic, instead?

Here; something I threw together to add to the top of your post. Resize as desired:

That should catch some eyes.

Please don’t just pin this, use it to correct the information on your (and NordVPN’s) setup instructions.

I was about to return my brand new Beryl until I discovered this thread via one last search.

Why NordVPN has two logins is one thing. Why they don’t tell anyone is another.

Nord VPN is known to not tell subscribers problems that impact service, security. There’s a reason they have the bottom of the barrel reputation for paid providers in the privacy “”“community.”“”

Yes, this works and resolved the issue. Thanks

Just use the credentials within nord vpns manual setup. Nord Vpn Dashboard > Nord VPN > scroll down > set up manual … and you get the right username and password

Thanks... I really needed this bit of knowledge.
