Release Note for Vigor2962

Due to the WebGUI security issue (fixed in 3.9.6.3), we recommend changing the passwords for admin login and password/PSKs for VPN profiles after upgrading the latest firmware from 3.9.6.2 or earlier.

Known Issue

  • The web portal may cause the router to be too busy to respond quickly.
  • The encryption method for OpenVPN will be returned to the factory default settings if upgrading the firmware version from V3.9.7.x to V4.3.1.
  • To prevent potential errors when upgrading firmware, it is recommended to upgrade firmware sequentially one version at a time. (e.g., if the current firmware is 3.9.1, upgrade to 3.9.2 then 3.9.7.2, and last 4.3.2).
  • When the firmware is downgrading via “System Maintenance > Firmware Upgrade”, one might have a chance to experience a config compatibility error, which causes the config of a certain function to return to the default setting. To avoid this error, “System Maintenance >> Configuration Export >> Restore Firmware with config” is the preferred way for firmware “downgrading”. We suggest backup the config file before upgrading any firmware as well.
