Hi phildartalk

 

Apologies for this. Our Products Team are investigating a potential issue with the firmware.

 

I have ordered you a different router, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

 

Let us know how the connection compares with this router.

 

Thanks

Ok, there have been several customers that have had issues using the built in windows VPN with the new Sagemcom firmware, the staff here may just suggest that they send you a router of a different type (the Huawei Hub).

Hi @phildartalk,

 

Presumably you have the Sagemcom Wi-Fi Hub ?

Can you confirm what VPN software you are trying to use.

 

The staff here should hopefully be able to reply tomorrow, and will be able to arrange a replacement router if they think this is necessary.
