  @Clive_A 

I really like that huge update in combination with latest Omada Software Controller Linux Beta. A big "THANK YOU" to the whole R&D Group of TP-Link!!!

 

Sadly, ER8411 as OpenVPN client to UDP Server with "certifacte + account" is still not working in Controller Mode. Not yet tested in standalone mode.

Hi @MatthiasL22 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

I believe this information should be gained by your own research on the DDNS provider QA. I cannot list every single URL. All providers have their IPv6 format. You should do some research on that.

Hi  @Clive_A,

you are right, as it makes no sense to publish the routers' ipv6 address.

Had to roll back to 1.1.0, lots of problems with IPsec site to site VPN,
Problem: accessing remote file share hangs for a long time , if I enter the file share and want to transfer a file, file transfer can hang for 1-2 minutes before the copying starts

and sometimes I can't access remote file share at all, ping to remote computer works, vpn is up and everything looks normal.

VPN speed is also much lower on 1.1.1 beta

 

and the never ending problems with OpenVPN have not been fixed either.

Hi @MR.S 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

So, if you downgrade it to 1.1.0, it all becomes normal again? No slowness in downloading, remote share works perfectly fine?

Nothing's been changed. You simply upgraded it and it became really bad?

I have some other questions. So, you used the term "sometimes" on V1.1.1. My question will be ever since you updated to the V1.1.1, from that time stamp, all become slow and "sometimes" inaccessible which indicates the version issue.

Is there anything else on your router? Other VPN types? I may ask for a running log and backup for replication of your issue.

What's your WAN connection type?

Roll back to the V1.1.0, instantly, everything is smooth and fast. No two symptoms mentioned above?

Yes sometime I have access to remote file share and sometime it take very long time. all the time ping to the remote server answer.

 

I cant send you backup off controller because of company security restriction, I don't now how much information there is in ER8411 device info, is there information that can identify remote network in this?

 

I do a upgrade just now and try disable SSL VPN and OpenVPN that is on TCP but there was now difference, 

I also try to download device info but nothing happened. I have to downgrade again I have home office today and ned to work so I have no time to test more before after work.

 

And Yes i have a lott off VPN tunnels, I have 34 configured tunnels, most is Site to site and deactivated and ther is 2 L2TP client tunnel (ER8411 is client) and one Openvpn with TCP

and SSL Is configured.

 

Now device download start, hanging about 5 min before the download start.

 

So i have Device info now with V1.1.1 firmware. BUT NOW i have to downgrade to start working :-)

 

And WAN connection type is DHCP on WAN/LAN4

As a comment, I can say that this router has always had vpn problems. I reported this in November 2022 and I then received this as a response from support. from the response, it does not seem that the problems were unknown to support a year ago.

 

sorry I didn't read the fine print at the bottom of the email, But i do now :-)

so i have deleted

and they are still known...

Accord support they should not persist in standalone mode which I could not test so far.
