quedini Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Is there are way to stop or cancel or other wise KILL the VPN connection sequence? For the last couple of days, I have been stuck in a connection loop. I tried to connect, then the page just kept loading and loading. When i refreshed, it showed it was still disconnected. However, when i look in the VPN log, it shows the following over and over constantly adding more and more. I have tried rebooting, and unplugging for a while, but even after that it continues pick up where it left off.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 15, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2016 Are you not able to un tick the enable box to disconnect the VPN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quedini Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Happened to me too , nothing you can do other than factory reset settings, sorry to say Also , you may want to hide your VPN IP Yeah I was afraid of that. That's why its taken me so long to do anything about it. Are you not able to un tick the enable box to disconnect the VPN? I have tried that, it still does the same thing. it's like the current process will not be deterred by the acts of mortal men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asentrix Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Are you not able to un tick the enable box to disconnect the VPN? When it happens , it's impossible to change credentials in the VPN input box / disable the connection attempts , it gets stuck in an endless loop of failed connection attempts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 15, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2016 it's like the current process will not be deterred by the acts of mortal men Haha! Could you provide me with the top part of your VPN config? There may be something in there causing it to restart if it fails. Looks like you'll have to factory reset unfortunately.

I haven't seen this issue before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 15, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2016 Okay I would definitely remove "auth-retry interact" and see if that resolves it. You may need to put that whole section at the top with the things under client as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quedini Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Thanks I will definitely try that. There currently isn't a way to backup all settings is there? If not , I will propose that as new feature. if I could back up and restore settings factory restore wouldn't be an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did add 'resolve-retry 0' since by default its 'resolve-retry infinite' so hopefully that will keep the loops from having it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
