Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.0.19 Release 42399

Hello,

how secure is the OpenVPN implementation on Deco85? My client on Windows 11 is alerting me of not using AES-256-CBC encryption, it is alerting me of the compression used making it vulerable to the VORACLE attack.

It would be nice to have an advance setting option for such important secure setting as a VPN Server.

I'd like to know if there's any workaround for this.

Thank you.

Hi, it will eventually come via the Deco APP and you could also manually update this version through the Web UI.

Deco firmware upgrades are usually rolled out in waves according to the MAC address so users might detect the latest versions at various times.

Thank you very much and best regards.

Hi, Thank you very much for the feedback.

Deco BE85 has added the WireGuard VPN on the latest 1.1.1 version, which is more secure and fast.

You could consider setting up a VPN server via WireGuard VPN protocol:

Deco BE85_1.1.1 Supports WireGuard VPN,Channel Selection and Matter

 

Thanks again and best regards.

  @David-TP I noticed the firmware posted is V2 but I need V1 (EU). Is that available somewhere else? Thanks!
