VPN Connection Problem using OpenVPN

This is a Fedora 31 kernel 5.5.6-201.fc31.x86_64 vpn connection problem. Up until a few days ago I was successfully using a VPN provider utilizing multiple global servers. My protocol is OpenVPN and NetworkManager-openvpn-gnome. Suddenly I can't connect from my desktop although my smartphone, laptop and other desktops in the house continue to connect successfully. The account is current and the username and password are valid as per the provider. I have uninstalled and reinstalled openvpn, O-N-G and updated all the ovpn files for the provider. I am baffled what is preventing the connection. Any insights would be greatly appreciated since I am at the end of any ideas and the provider's tech support is completely useless. Thanks in advance.

NAME
t_snddis() - send user-initiated disconnect request SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The function is used to initiate an abortive release on an already established connection or to reject a connect request. fd identifies the local transport endpoint of the connection, and call specifies information associated with the abortive release. call points to a structure which contains the following members: The type structure is defined in the or header file. This structure, which is used to define buffer parameters, has the following members: maximum byte length of the data buffer actual byte length of data written to buffer points to buffer location The values in call have different semantics, depending on the context of the call to When rejecting a connect request, call must be a non- null pointer and contain a valid value of sequence to uniquely identify the rejected connect indication to the transport provider. The sequence parameter is only meaningful, if the transport connection is in the state (see t_getstate(3)). The addr and opt fields of call are ignored. In all other cases, call need only be used when data is being sent with the disconnect request. The addr, opt, and sequence fields of the structure are ignored. If the user does not wish to send data to the remote user, the value of call may be a null pointer. udata specifies the user data to be sent to the remote user. The amount of user data must not exceed the limits supported by the transport provider as returned in the discon field of the info argument of or If the len field of udata is zero, no data will be sent to the remote user. Valid States (ocnt > 0). Caveats is an abortive disconnect. Therefore a issued on a connection endpoint may cause data previously sent via or data not yet received to be lost (even if an error is returned). Fork Safety is not fork-safe. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
On failure, is set to one of the following: [TBADF] The specified identifier does not refer to a transport endpoint. [TOUTSTATE] This function was issued in the wrong sequence on the transport endpoint referenced by fd. [TBADDATA] (XTI only) The amount of user data specified was not within the bounds allowed by the transport provider. Some out- bound data queued for this endpoint may be lost. [TBADSEQ] An invalid sequence was specified, or a null call pointer was specified when rejecting a connect request. Some out- bound data queued for this endpoint may be lost. [TLOOK] An asynchronous event has occurred on this transport endpoint and requires immediate attention. [TNOTSUPPORT] This function is not supported by the underlying transport provider. [TSYSERR] A system error has occurred during execution of this function. [TPROTO] (XTI only) This error indicates that a communication problem has been detected between XTI and the transport provider for which there is no other suitable XTI ( SEE ALSO
