IV. Known Issues
* When using XAUTH with the User Database (not RADIUS), you must add the VPN client users to the User Database menu to allow client authentications. In the User Database menu, these VPN clients must be assigned to the group with the name of the VPN policy.
* When using XAUTH with RADIUS, you must use the "Filter-Id" parameter in the RADIUS profile. For the Filter-Id value, enter the name of the VPN policy used by the VPN client.
* Due to these User Database menu modifications, we recommend starting from factory defaults. Alternatively please attempt to upgrade this image in the following manner to avoid factory defaults configuration:
1. Delete all VPN Client policies.
2. Reboot the router.
3. Configure VPN Client policies.
* You may need to toggle Daylight Savings Time setting after upgrade.
* If you were having problems with reserved IP addresses in Groups and Hosts, you may need to perform a factory default reset after upgrading to the newer version.
* Can't edit VPN policy to change LAN subnet.
* An attempt to access a blocked site is not logged.
It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Do not forget to check with our site as often as possible in order to stay updated on the latest drivers, software and games.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed a wrong driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
