IPSec/NordVPN tutorial not working for me

Thu May 21, 2020 8:31 pm

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to Mikrotik and RouterOS.
I'm trying to follow allong with this NordVPN/IPSec tutorial, and the command to register a new IPSec Identity is not working for me.
add auth-method=eap certificate="" eap-methods=eap-mschapv2 generate-policy=port-strict mode-config=NordVPN peer=NordVPN policy-template-group=NordVPN username=support@mikrotik.com password=secret
I know I am in the right scope, /ip ipsec identity, but it tells me "expected end of command (line 1 column 36)".

The GUI has no options for Username and Password. And if I try to add the identity without eap-methods=eap-mschapv2 and username and password, which seems to make the command valid, it tells me "EAP supported only for responder".

If anyone could help me out with what I could be doing wrong, it would be much appreciated.

Same problem here. I'm not seeing "eap" in the auth method list. When I use the terminal I always get an error message saying: EAP supported only for responder.

Please help.

Thanks.

Same problem here : hanging in EAP.
It used to work in the past, and even weirder: its still working fine for US + Canada, eg ca1069.nordvpn.com or us8375.nordvpn.com.

Any suggestions ?

Same over here and gets stuck on the EAP. Time to invoke support of NordVPN.

Found my solution and maybe that goes up for many others.

I was using my email and password to use the VPN on the Mikrotik for almost two years now and it worked like a charm. I tried many things in the router but that did not change anything.

It seems that NordVPN does not allow using their service with just e-mail and password and now you get a dedicated username and password generated by them to be used in manual setups.

You can find those generated setting on the following page: my.nordaccount.com/dashboard/nordvpn/ and look under Advanced configuration

I hope that this helps, so that not many have to search everywhere like I did to see this be changed without any notification by NordVPN.
