Solution Zscaler VPN / Global Protect VPN Performance Issue with Deco
This Article Applies to：
Deco X73-DSL_V1,Deco PX50_V1, Deco X50_V1
Issue Description:
Some users reported that, when connecting to Deco, devices that use the Zscaler VPN service, are close to unusable. For example, With the Zscaler VPN connected, the laptop only got 2-6mbps upload and the upload traffic is often blocked out or timed out. While without Zscaler, the laptop is able to get 400-800mbps Upload.
Possible Suggestions:
1. Please confirm the Zscaler VPN client utility is up-to-date.
2. If there is already an ISP-supplied router, please temporarily set Deco in Access Point mode.

Hi David
Given that it's taking so long to get a production fix for this problem, can you tell us a bit more about this workaround? What functionality is disabled? What security risks are associated with it?
Also can you give us some indication as to when we can move to the mainstream firmware?

Go to your IT department and ask them to create a profile for people with problems using TLS instead of DTLS.
They should assign you the new profile > start Zscaler > update policy > no more problems :)

@HRT1337 Do you have any details of this? I haven't seen any technical details of what the problem is, or what the workaround in the temporary firmware does.
The fact that there are so few details is not great...

Hi!
Will there be an update for Deco X50 V1.2?
I'm having trouble with working when Zscaler is on and currently cannot be turned off (company policy).
Is there any workaround other than switching router to your competition?
