VPN Client License

Hello

We have tried to install the VPN client from the CD, but i did not work.

 

When I loaded a newer version it asks me for a license which we dont have. I checked the CD and could not see any license number

 

Serial no: 1E259B3T00052

 

How can we solv this

 

Best regards

  • Yes, I was able to register our FVS336Gv3 and had the license keys reset after opening an online case with support.  Everyone was very helpful.  I know this response is 4 months late but thanks again for your help.

    Hi FAYEZCHAHRSTAN,

     

    Welcome to the community! Smiley Happy 

     

    The serial number you have given corresponds to an FVX538v2 VPN firewall.  Kindly answer the questions below:

     

    a. The VPN client you mentioned, is it the NETGEAR VPN Client Lite software?  

    b. Is the VPN client software you are referring to bundled with the FVX538v2 when it was purchased?  

     

    If your answers to both questions above are "yes", then kindly access and read the article below to check if you are qualified to receive a free VPN Lite license key:

     

    VPN Lite Software Version 6.12.001

    • Hi and sorry to delay.

      It did npt solve the problem.

       

      The software on the CD doesnot work with newer Windows and the one I dowlnoaded needs a Licensnr.

       

      Moment 22 as we call it in Sweden.

       

      Best Regards

        Hi FAYEZCHAHRSTAN,

         

        It seems that what you have downloaded is the NETGEAR ProSAFE VPN Client Professional software.  It would really require a license after the 30-day trial period.  You may purchase the license key from any NETGEAR Authorized Reseller listed on this link.  

         

         

        Regards,

  • Fayez my suggestion is that don't install VPN from PC because many time VPN which is installed from CD is Fake so download VPN From the internet if you can use premium VPN then use Premium  VPN because premium VPN is very safe and secure then free VPN.

     

    Thank You
