After googling around and trying things for a couple hours, these steps worked for me. I had to connect to my phone as a hotspot to prove it because it doesn't work when connected to the same wifi hotspot as the router that is running the vpn server. Hope this helps someone.
# install these packages in ubuntu terminal
sudo apt-get install openvpn
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome
# download the client files from the router as

# open network > edit connections > add >
# import a saved vpn configuration > select the client.conf file
# that was extracted in the Downloads directory
# edit the vpn connection and set the gateway port to :12973
# (same as is configured in the router's vpn settings)
# change type to TLS
# select client.crt that was extracted in the Downloads dir
