                                Thanks, I just disabled the admin account which is what I normally do but I have a new QNAP NAS and am in the middle of upgrading the hardware and forgot to do it when I reloaded the software, thanks again, appreciate it. One thing though is when I wanted to just change the admin password it did not come up as an option.

                                Thanks again Pellonet, I have just enabled my VPN so lets see if it's working? The only thing I can do at the moment is to disable the Wifi on my cell to test it that way.

                                Have you tried setting static DNS servers in your DD-WRT router? That's what has worked for me. It appears that ExpressVPN's default DNS servers don't work with DDNS well.
