Hello,

After an automatic firmware update to 1.3.2 Build 20260212, the VPN Client functionality on my Archer BE3600 has been replaced with VPN Merge. Since then, my self-hosted WireGuard VPN server connection no longer works.

What was working before:

• VPN Client (WireGuard) connected successfully to my self-hosted WireGuard server
• All devices routed through VPN without issues
• Everything worked perfectly on the previous firmware

What happens now (after update to 1.3.2):

• VPN Merge replaced VPN Client
• When I try to connect, the status goes: Connecting → Disconnecting → Disconnected
• The connection never establishes — it cycles endlessly
• The same WireGuard configuration file works perfectly when imported directly into the WireGuard app on my phone/PC

What I have already tried:

• Factory reset (multiple times)
• Deleting and re-creating the WireGuard profile
• Re-importing the .conf file
• Trying different WireGuard servers
• Rebooting the router (cold restart)

The problem is clearly related to VPN Merge replacing VPN Client. The same .conf file that worked before the update now fails. My self-hosted WireGuard server is confirmed working — other devices connect to it without any issues using the same configuration.

My requests:

1. Is there a way to downgrade to the previous firmware where VPN Client was working?
2. Can the development team investigate the VPN Merge compatibility with self-hosted WireGuard servers?
3. Is there a beta firmware available that fixes this issue?

I would appreciate any help. This is a critical feature for me, and the inability to downgrade firmware makes the situation very frustrating.

Thank you.
