maufus,

 

Welcome to our community! :)

 

We do apologize for the experience that you had with our BR200. I would suggest downgrading it first to the previous firmware version as a workaround on this issue. This is a known issue as per the release notes.

  • NAT loopback does not work in this release. NAT loopback is useful for accessing internal resources by public domain name.
  • Workarounds: Use one of these workarounds:
    • Change device hosts file to map a public domain name to local IP when working on the same subnet as a public server.
    • Use a separate DNS server that can handle accessing public resources from an internal network.
    • Downgrade to a previously released firmware with NAT loopback support.

Regards,

 

John
