Can't download VPN configuration files
I'm trying to setup a VPN through my router. I log into my router (I've done this through different computers using different browsers) and click to turn on the VPN service under Advanced . . . when I click to download any of the three options for the configuration files (Windows, non-Windows, Smart Phone), I'm given the login dialog box again. So I put in my username and password, click OK, and I'm presented with the login dialog box again . . . it's an endless loop . . . I cannot get passed this. I've even tried typing in the default password (password) . . . doesn't work. Any suggestions?
It's a bug in the firmware. I downloaded previous firmwares one at a time . . . couldn't download the Configuration Files until I went back to 1.1.4.6 firmware. I downloaded the files, set up my VPN, updated the router to the latest firmware, and the VPN works fine. Hopefully, the developers can fix this.
