Hi I got purevpn because it was supported by my xr500 nighthawk but it will always fail and I have never been able to use it..

here is some of the log file 

 

Edit: so I have changed location and it works

It's possible that the preset you were using is out of date. Which location were you attempting to use that didn't work? I can test it to see if we have to update it.

Australia, it has no citys for the area also.

I can seem to find the sever to access US Netflix on there, I spend alot of time our side the USA. If you can suggest anything would be cool?

You said there's no cities listed for Australia? On mine I have Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney

I have factory reset it a couple times and tried different settings but I don't get any city's available for Australia

I'm guessing there is no way to configure it to a lan port, or so all new devices will be tunneled through VPN? 

 

Also I get dns leak when using VPN. 🤔

The DNS leak is a known problem, we're working on that.

No unfortunately there's no way to make the VPN cover a whole physical port. Good idea though, i'll add it to the suggestions list.

As for the fact that you don't have any Australian cities in your list, that's really weird, i'll ask the devs.

Hey yea I tried that before and again just now. No city's come up. 

 

Also only a phew in my USA list work...

Maybe the correct list will be reinstated if you downgrade your firmware and upgrade it again?

Download this firmware and send it to your router: https://kb.netgear.com/000053241/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-0-0-28

Then download this firmware and upgrade to it again: https://kb.netgear.com/000060464/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-3-2-40

Thanks,

I was hoping this would work but I have the same problem.

Also is the DNS leak a pureVPN problem? I read a phew things saying they have puss DNS leak protection.

Yes that might be related, i've never seen that before.

I'm going to forward this thread to the devs so that they can figure out what's going on here.

Cheers man, after posting it I found it on another post, looking for a fix but apparently it's only cosmetic.

So I have fiddled around on an XR500 in the office, and you're right. PureVPN only lists countries, cities never appear. Could you just confirm for me that no other countries have cities listed? You don't have to click them all, just a few will do.

Also could you switch to hidemyass and see if cities appear then? Because they do for me. I think this is a problem specific to purevpn. I've made a bug report.

I have just chased this with the team as I think this is something we can fix remotely for everyone without a firmware update. Just waiting to hear back from them to confirm that.
