I recently bought a GL-A1300/Slate Plus to use as a travel router. My VPN is Cyberghost. It refuses to connect to the service. Here is the log data: It ends up saying it can find file or directory. Hope someone can help.

None of these log files show the issue. Could you please try to post the complete log?

Here is the complete log. It seems to do one set at start, then another at the failure. Thank you for your help. Routers are not my strong suit and this is my first attempt at using a travel router with VPN.

Here is the first set.

There is still not issue in this logs.

Can you please post the full log from Oct 13 13:56:35 until Oct 13 13:57:05 but without a gap?
Please don't truncate based on what you guess might be interesting or not :wink:

Does the VPN work from another device (phone, laptop) when you are in the same network like you tried with your Slate Plus?

The problem is I don't get a continuous feed. The log window displays some data, then clears and displays some new entries. It does this about every 10 seconds. Here is a lengthly copy and paste on a retry

I don't see any "big" issues here that would explain why it does not work.
The VPN will stay yellow inside the GUI?

8

Yes and no internet is available while its trying to connect. Is there no concern with the lines

Nah, they are fine. It's just usual log noise.

10

Thanks for looking at them.

11

Yes, I'm getting the same issue on my iphone and ipad

12

Do you try to access VPN from a country that does not like VPN?

13

I'm in the US trying to connect to US. It accepts the config file from CyberGhost, but it just continuously says "The client is starting please wait" I've tried several times with both the UDP and TCP options. Ive followed both the CyberGhost and GL docs to no avail. Getting ready to send this router back to Amazon and get one recommended by CyberGhost. I've spent at least 12 hrs trying to get this to work.

14

If your iPad and iPhone doesn't work as well, it's not an router issue.

15

Are there settings I need to look at in my main router? I have the GL using the repeating function for my TP link router. I did try plugging it into the LAN and got the same issure.

16

Nevermind, I unplugged the GL and connected directly into the cable modem. I'm at a loss now

17

Do you have the VPN issue even without the GL?

18

CyberGhost runs fine when installed on my desktop. I want to use the router while traveling.

19

I solved it! When manually configuring a device in CyberGhost, it comes up with it's own credentials.

When I load the config file in the GL, it asks for more credentials which I assumed it was asking for my login/password. When I used the credentials from the screen shot, all went well.
Thank you all for your help. I sure learned a lot more than I knew about routers today and yesterday.

Client applications work different to routers.
Did you upgrade the router to the newest firmware already?
