Unfortunately, my ExpressVPN subscription has been refunded now so I can't try that, however, if it helps in anyway, here's the logs from a successfull NordVPN connect (had to create a separate message, limited to 3000 characters)

Incidentally, the 2865 has support for OpenVPN Lan to Lan, but I couldnt get it to import the ExpressVPN configuration file, it imported the NordVPN one and worked a treat, but performance was horrendous. I don't have a great connection to start with, only about 35Mb/8Mb but speedtest with each of the 3 types of VPN connections gave me:

OpenVPN/TCP : 8.69/3.14
OpenVPN/UDP : 19.63/1.86
IPSEC IKEV2 EAP : 33.73/4.67

Only got the 2865 on Friday so will log a ticket with support to see if it's expected.

Probably not that relevant, but interesting in its own right :D

All ExpressVPN give you for a manual connection (they are very keen for you to use their apps instead of this) is a username and password, the Pre-shared Global Key of 12345678 and a list of servers to connect to.

I have tried a few of the connection servers and all behaved much the same really. Some connect briefly and some don't connect at all, or at least to briefly that I don't get a chance to see it happen.

Vigor2920 and just enough knowledge to be dangerous
