Orbi Firmware Upgrades Not Keeping Up With OpenVPN Security Standards
Greetings!
I am leveraging the VPN function on the Orbi which is using the OpenVPN. I have not been having a problem until around early last year when our connections using OpenVPN are now showing this error:
WARNING: Compression for receiving enabled. Compression has been used in the past to break encryption. Sent packets are not compressed unless "allow-compression yes" is also set.
DEPRECIATED OPTION: --cipher set to 'AES-128-CBC' but missing in --data-ciphers (AES-256-GCM: AES-128-GCM). Open VPN ignores --cipher for cipher negotiations
OpenVPN has made this change to remove compression way back in 2023-01. So this compression issue is preventing connection with VPN. Why hasn't NETGEAR been keeping up with this and making changes to VPN with Firmware upgrades. How can I fix this issue and get my VPN back up and running?
