Hello,

It seems that the authentication failed, but I can't figure out the reason.

Please export the issue syslog.
Please share your openvpn profile with me, you can mark the privacy info.

Please send them in PM.

Thanks I change to proton vpn and now is working but have question is there any way to bypass some apps outside of vpn?

j2zero · October 28, 2025, 5:42pm

@ja16779 What VPN provider was giving you the failed login? Was it NordVPN by any chance?

Some VPN providers have an account username / password and seperate credentials for the VPN configs

ja16779 · October 28, 2025, 5:54pm

Was openvpn

j2zero · October 28, 2025, 6:21pm

That's a protocol, I assumed you were using a 3rd party OpenVPN config? hence you said you changed to proton….

ja16779 · October 28, 2025, 6:35pm

Yes openvpn did not work was to complicated to configure access server in the cloud and for that reason change to proton von but I noted can’t use split tunnel

Please upgrade the Flint 2 to the latest firmware first, like v4.8.3.
Switch the VPN mode to policy, and configure the split rules what you want.

Thanks but i use opt 24

bruce · October 31, 2025, 8:22am

Sure, the op24 also has firmware that supports multiple VPN instances, v4.8.2-op24
