Hi Debbie,

I'm having the same issue. PPTP is being blocked and I'm permanently home-based.

Hardware version: FAST5364 3.00

Software version: SG4K100136

GUI version: 5.6.1

Please could you assist?

Many thanks

Jamie

Hi tkzzzz

I will need to make a change to your router firmware. When would be the best time to do this?

We advise to leave the the router switched on without being rebooted whilst we update the FW.

Thanks

It is a bug in firmware V130. I have asked one of TalkTalk's support to pick your thread up and put a working version on your router for you..
