@ChristineT - more than strange Netgear was and is unable to update all these router models to an OpenVPN version and configuration supporting SHA256 signed keys (and ideally an optional upgrade from 1024 bit keys to at least 2048 bit keys - as 1024 is more than weak nowadays). This major change was announced by OpenVPN more than one year ago - and your customers continue to suffer from the loss of the OpenVPN connectivity home or the small office.

@ErnestTheGreat - this does reflect the Netgear consumer product management and ODM inability for keeping things up2date. Can't take a year or more before such issues are resolved. It's about basic product and code management. What should a prospect NTGR customer think when he or she does read threads like these? Do you think existing customers of these consumer devices will suggest buying Netgear business equipment at their work?
