Hybrid VPN firmware XR1000 1.0.0.64_1.0.49

[Scott91]

Good morning.

I just discovered the 1.0.0.64_1.0.49 update on the netgear website and there is no information for hybrid vpn. Does that mean that one will not be proposed ?

Thanks

Hey, welcome to the forum!

It's entirely up to Netgear but it doesn't mean it isn't coming. That version was a smaller update compared to what we're working on at the moment, which will align DumaOS better across all the platforms.

Thank you for the welcome. Ok, I really hope it will happen later, I find it a shame to have less possibility on a newer device. Thank you for taking the time to answer me.

Hello Frazer, I really need the hybrid VPN and it is just gone in the current regular Netgear Software release (Firmware .58) on XR1000. This is one of the reasons why I use DUMAOS and therefore the XR1000.

Why was it removed? When will it come back? Or do I need another product (NetDuma Army day 1 here) :-)

You may have been using one of the older beta firmwares as it wasn't in the previous full release firmware. It's going to be included in the next firmware as far as I'm aware, and we're working on that port now!

That would be very old at this point and would be missing vital security updates, I don't have it to hand but could see if the team have it but as above best to wait for the new version.

Hi Admin, 

Is their a date yet for the Hybrid VPN for the XR1000?

Hi, 

Do the older version of firmware on the XR 1000 support the hybrid vpn ? It is disappointing for such a feature not to be included in the XR 1000 and to be included in the XR 500. It does suck.

Welcome to the forum!

I'm afraid not, it's not a decision that we make here at Netduma. As it's NETGEAR's hardware, they decide what features it gets. I believe it is planned to be added in future firmware, but unfortunately that's about as much as we know.
