What settings did you change exactly prior to putting the Xbox online? It may be worth doing another factory reset as some users have reported if gets rid of issues that the first didn't. You'll have to use Wireguard following this format: ... I did the reset over the Webinterface and the 3 dots in the top right. Network settings: Adding Cloudflare primary and secondary DNS, disabling WiFi, assign a fixed IP to the Xbox, assign a fixed IP to my PC. Device Manager: Rename the Xbox and choose the device type, rename my PC QoS: Disable completely Traffic rules: Add a new rule that allows everything for the Xbox Could it be that the Netduma doesn´t like "=" in the values? My config file has multiple "=" in the private and public key. And my config file has a preshared key for the peer. I´m not sure if the connection works without this value.

Cheers Do another reset, don't change anything and see if it can connect. If it can, change each setting one at a time and see at which point that it fails. I'll have to pass that on to the VPN dev to double check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pentol Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 @Netduma Fraser Hello, when will you make a change in the software to save the user's preferences? I mean, after the factory reset, you can load the settings from the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like something was still off after the first reset as the Xbox never came online at all. I already contacted the VPN provider but they can´t change the public key of their VPN server just because the Netduma probably has a problem with a "=" in the config. It bothers me that the Netduma just show "failed" as status and the log in empty. Is this intentional? Normally a log should help to identify a problem but in this case i don´t get any information to resolve the problem. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on our roadmap but I'm afraid I can't speculate if/when we would implement a feature like this. 4 hours ago, KARLmitLAMA said: The second reset worked fine and the Xbox came only right after the reset.

Cheers Glad to hear the problem with the Xbox is resolved, let us know if you experience any further issues like this. Could you let us know who your VPN provider is? We're aware there's no logging information in Hybrid VPN, that's a known bug and will be fixed for future firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Liam, i switched to VPN Unlimited by Keepsolid because NordVPN wont offer Wireguard config files. As mentioned, both the public and private keys are ending with "=" and may cause the problem. I already tried to use ", ' or ` around the keys but that doesn´t help. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers No that won't be the problem, my config file also ends with equals signs and works fine. Can you send us the configuration file? Just remove any private info such as the keys.

Netduma Liam Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 @KARLmitLAMA Thanks for responding to my PM. Glad you're now connected, you mentioned that the xbox is offline though. Could you confirm what you mean by that? Is the xbox no longer able to connect to the internet? Do you have the xbox added in the 'VPN Traffic' section? To be clear, your xbox's local IP won't change, it is only your external IP that other devices and servers on the internet see that will have changed.

KARLmitLAMA Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Quick Update: Liam was able to modify the VPN Unlimited config and atleast the Netduma is now connected. Only one space behind the equal sign and dns in small letters. Example: "dns= 1.1.1.1" instead of "DNS = 1.1.1.1" Unfortunately the Xbox is offline when HybridVPN is enabled. The Xbox is declared as device type Xbox in the device manager and added to the VPN traffic list under HybridVPN. I´m not able to open any website in Microsoft Edge (e.g. google.com) and i´m shown as offline in the menu. I already tried another server location and the behavior stays the same.

Glad you got it sorted! Shown offline on the Xbox menu? If you apply the VPN to a PC for example does it get internet and does it appear offline in the Device Manager as well?

KARLmitLAMA Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Yeah the Xbox is completly offline, i can´t see my friedlist or open a party chat. I tried to add my PC as VPN device and it shows the same behavior after enabling the HybridVPN. I´m not able to open any website or ping google.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KARLmitLAMA Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I added the IPv4 DNS but i can´t delete the IPv6 DNS i already entered. Even when clearing the entry and saving, the IPv6 DNS is still entered after reloading the HybridVPN page. The Xbox is still offline, even when adding the IPv4 DNS of my VPN Unlimited config.

Could you disable IPv6 from the LAN and WAN settings temporarily and check if the Xbox then has access? It might require a reboot of the console.

KARLmitLAMA Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Same result, the Xbox stays offline. I disabled IPv6 in the LAN and WAN settings of the Netduma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KARLmitLAMA Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Ok that was a pretty bad idea... After enabling IPv6 again, the Xbox stays offline even with HybridVPN being disabled. Seems like there are quiet some fixes necessary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to the VPN dev who's informed me we don't have IPv6 support for Wireguard yet, so if your xbox is only getting an IPv6 address that's why it can't get online. You'll likely need to reboot the Xbox or setup it's Network settings again, it'll need to obtain a new IP if all it had was IPv6 previously.

KARLmitLAMA Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I already restartet the Xbox after disabling IPv6 in the Netduma settings. The Xbox receives a IPv4 from the Netduma R2 and no IPv6 at all. So that´s not the problem. It would be very helpful to have a log to see what is happening. Any ETA for the fixed firmware?

WireGuard and the DNS options for HybridVPN are really new so won't have had as much user feedback on it but we're aware of the issues and will get them sorted. I'd suggest giving the router a factory reset, using the config you got working, enter just the IPv4 DNS and see if it then works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it might be in the current version but otherwise it's definitely in the firmware upcoming - as far as I can tell Germany have the same rules on what frequencies can be used as the US so I would advise you to double check this before selecting.
