Facing Frequent disconnections

in Other Devices VPN Setup
Using Asus Merlin Firmware. But noted in the past few days that the my openvpn connection is getting disconnected. This is not getting reconnected. Have to manually change the IP address and then select the SERVICE STATE- to ON position. During this item my router is getting connected to the ISP and exposing my usage details.

During disconnection- the Log states error-

    Same here, the past month has been a nightmare. No settings changed either. Was working flawlessly. Somethings changed.

    I'm having the same issue on a Linksys WRT1200AC and a Nighthawk AC1900. Frequently drops the VPN And won't reconnect automatically without changing the server.

    I am having the same issues on an Asus router running Merlin firmware... Clearly there is something happening on PIA's end as there are posts ALL OVER about it, both on PIA's forum and elsewhere, and nearly all of them are from about April onwards it seems... PIA, can you give us some info please? I'm a long long time customer that would hate to leave what is otherwise such a great service over such a tiny, yet ultimately deal-breaking, quibble.
