VPN requiring frequent reboots
Nighthawk R8000P FW: V1.4.4.94_1.3.56 All of the sudden I have all users having trouble with OpenVPN to the Netgear. The router is requiring reboots almost daily for clients to be able to connect. ...
Thanks for your response:
- Technicolor DPC3941B modem
- I will turn on IPv6 auto this evening
- Just replaced the network cable per your suggestion
- Device has been fully power cycled (unplugged for minutes), this was done prior to this support post
- Factory reset has not been performed, wanted to rule out everything else first
Can you tell my why you think the wireless configurations may have any impact on remote clients VPNing into this device? I would like to understand for future. If you are asking about the remote client connectivity on their local networks, it is a mixed bag of wireless (with a variety of settings) and wired. If you are asking about the wireless on the main network with the Netgear in question, 2.4GHz is on Auto and 5GHz is on 44. There are other networks nearby, a handful, and are not on conflicting channels. Our internal wireless works well.
Checking for any possible interference issue on wireless. If your wireless is working ok, then thats fine.
Lets see if enabling IPv6 helps...
