Hi, I understand your situation. You're in Iran with limited internet access and rely on a VPN for websites like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Your current setup uses an Asus DSL-ac51 modem with built-in VPN support. When using NordVPN OVPN, the connection works smoothly on your devices, but browsing becomes problematic—especially on your phone and laptop. Only your PC seems to function normally. The IP address shows you're connected to the VPN location, yet certain sites still can't load. Could you share more details about the specific websites or apps that are affected?

What protocol (TCP or UDP) are you employing? Are you sure your DNS isn't leaking? (dnsleaktest.com)

From the manual, it appears your router includes a VPN server rather than a client. This means it’s designed to let you join your private network from another location on the web, not to route all your network’s data through an external VPN provider.

The setup uses the UDP protocol. You can observe the same settings on both your laptop and phone, but you're experiencing issues opening Facebook on your phone while it works fine on your laptop.

In fact, you're using a VPN client on your modem, but you're unsure why you can't access Facebook on your phone.

The location feature is disabled to prevent tracking your real position. You haven’t completed the DNS leak tests—just browsed the site.
