finding a router with OpenVPN support

wco81 · 2023-11-12T01:33:38+00:00

I’m thinking about a new router as well. Currently using a the T Mobile Cellspot router. I use Open VPN, iOS and Mac clients. With the latest iOS apps, it's no longer liking the certificates generated by the Cellspot router because it uses an old or insecure hash algorithm to generate the certificate file. So my iOS 3.4.1 apps no longer connect as of a month ago but my Mac OS 3.4.2 client still does. I figure the router is old and Asus isn't updating the firmware to support more secure certificate generation methods. Can I assume that routers which are a year or two old should have Open VPN servers and more secure certificate generation?

Just buy a real Asus model that MerlinWrt supports.
https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net
the model you have they dropped support over 6 years ago. Merlin dev dropped support when Asus requested so because they were being dumped on the open market from T-mobile at below cost.
And this is the payment to allow the Dev work on firmware without being DCMA'ed.
