Known Issue

• The web portal may cause the router to be too busy to respond quickly.
• A firewall can restrict/drop unwanted inbound WAN traffic such as VPN requests. The router’s firewall block rules can stop remote management, NAT loopback traffic, and VPN access. It is recommended to review the firewall settings before upgrading.
• 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.
