OrbiOS MR 2.1 issues
I wanted to reach out to provide a quick update on OrbiOS 2.1 software. We believe that these issues are affecting some users. Rest assured that we've been following this issue and working hard beh...
For what it's worth - I was having trouble with my work VPN disconnecting randomly (although it seemed to be primarily during Skype calls) last week. Having never had this issue previously, I rolled back the firmware to the prior version (2.0 something) and the problem went away. It's been 72 hours with no disconnects. So while it may not be conclusive, it's pretty compelling that the 2.1 firmware was also causing the VPN disconnects.
PLEASE stop auto firmware updates.
Can everyone help to upvote for the following in Idea Exchange? It would be really nice if we can choose to enable or disable automatic firmware update. "if it ain’t ˈbroke, don’t ˈfix it"
