<p>thanks, i got a reply from buffalo:</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Hello, Currently the 19xxx series of DD-WRT both Buffalo branded and community branded have a known issue with VPN, at the current moment the DD-WRT team hasn’t managed to get a fix into a stable release. We are aware of the issue, and are awaiting a proper stable fix before releasing a new update for the firmware. If you want the fix’s for the 19xxx series firmware, I recommend you use the imperfect solution you have already mentioned in stopping the daemon, otherwise the older firmware version should work just fine as a solution to keep you up and running without the need to disable the openvpn server. Should you need anything else, please feel free to reply to this eMail, or give the Buffalo Support Center in your region a call. Thank you for contacting Buffalo Technology
