OpenVPN connects but traffic doesn't route through it

Hi,

My router is NETGEAR R7000, and the FW is freshtomato-R7000-ARM_NG-2022.7-VPN-64K.

I’m currently trying to configure the OpenVPN Client on my router, although the VPN client connects, but no traffic route through it. The same OpenVPN profile works perfectly on my phone and laptop.

I've been struggling for days on this issue, I’ve tried connecting with every Compressions, TLS control channel security, all without success.

Here is the log

I’m new to FreshTomato and OpenVPN, and hope this is only a configuration issue.
