Chiming in to say that I too am having issues on an 86u with OpenVPN and my network telling me I am disconnected.

Thank for reporting. I noticed that going back to previous release my VPN speed is better. Also no disconnects. It could be related to new SSL lib and VPN.

Did you drop back to 384.9 or just the prior beta?

After 24hrs of no problems, I just reconnected my OpenVPN client. Fingers crossed for now.

I will report back here should anything go down again.

In the meantime, what I did (in case it’s related or can help) is disable the WiFi smart connect. I created 3 separate SSIDs and tweaked all 3 in the professional settings tab.

WiFi performance seems solid (it was also the case with smart connect) but I have to keep testing with the optimal channels. On the 2.4GHz, I switched to the 20Mhz only. For the 5GHz band, I’m still on 20/40/80. Not sure if I should keep it that way or switch to 80.

Does the server you try to connect to support TCP?

Yes i can connect from windows and linux in tcp.

That doesn't mean the server address and port you entered on your router supports both protocols, their Windows client probably automatically change that for you. Most providers require you to enter a different server and/or port if you want to switch protocol.

Can you guys provide the exact steps you are taking where you are experiencing problems changing the server's CA? The only scenario I can reproduce here is if you change the CA but do not provide a server certificate and server key, then the router would generate all three of them. This isn't a new issue, and must have been there for a very long time. I just fixed this specific scenario by having the router no longer check the presence of the server key/cert to determine if a CA mus tbe auto-generated. However, I am not experiencing any problem if I change the CA without changing or removing the server key/certs that are currently present (tho a client would fail to connect with that, as the cert must be signed by the same CA).

Can you provide actual numbers?

Since upgrading to 384.10, I'm seeing this sequence of log entries over and over anywhere from 3 - 10 minutes apart. Any ideas what these mean and are they important? The router seems to be running OK and I'm not seeing any specific issues on network devices that use the router. Thanks.

Working on it.

Working on a reply there soon as I get my head around this. I just saw the dcd crash section on GitHub.

Thank for reporting. I noticed that going back to previous release my VPN speed is better. Also no disconnects. It could be related to new SSL lib and VPN.

I have experienced that issue on prior firmware updates a time or two. When I did the update, the OpenVPN speeds went into the gutter. Reverting to the prior firmware fixed the issue. But I was a noob at the time. The resolution to the issue was to perform a factory reset after the firmware flash was completed followed by a manual reentering of the configuration. Have you tried a factory reset followed by a manual reenter of the configs to see if that helps?

Could signature update problems be related to this?
