VPN connection not working

Hi all.

I have switched over to PlusNet today from BT.  I have a VPN client running on Router A (the router that has switched to PlusNet) and a VPN server running on Router B at another location.  Up until the switch these two routers were communicating fine over OpenVPN on a UDP protocol and a non-standard port.  The server uses DDNS and I haven't had a problem until today.  I can still connect to the server using my phone using mobile data but I can not connect to it when on Router A's WiFi or from Router A direct.  I have tried changing the port to a standard one, tried changing the Router A's DNS, and the MTU packet rate. I've changed NAT passthrough settings. Non of it makes a difference.  Does PlusNet have issues with UDP and is it worth changing to TCP?  Both routers are ASUS if that helps?

 

Thanks.
