XR700 not connecting to any VPN Hybrid servers ( I have a paid subscription )


Recommended Posts

If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated, these are the steps I've done just to see if I could fix.

reset router
changed firmware from the newest to one update back, and then forward again
tried multiple servers both UDP and TCP
tried connecting via the different config files
Checked subscription to HMA everything checks out.

I have a virgin media hub 4 on the 1Gig broadband
the hub 4 is in modem mode, and the XR700 is acting as the main router

i've never had any issues with VPN Hybrid in the past.

Just keeps telling me failed once trying to connect to any server.

Just to clarify, are you using the Advanced Setup to connect? You're getting an auth failed entry there which indicates the username/password entered may be incorrect, double check that and also see if they give you different credentials to use when connecting instead of your user/pass that you use to access their site.

I've just said i've used both the basic and the advanced setup.

The Log is identical everytime.. I know i'm not being stupid here, im using the only available login, that i've always used. i've reset password and retried.

nothing is working, there has to be a fault somewhere

Holding the reset in the back of the router for 30 seconds will reset it, otherwise you can use the factory reset option by clicking the 3 dots top right of the interface.

There are limited reasons you could be getting this error:

  1. Username / password is incorrect, either typed incorrectly or incorrect credentials used
  2. HMA are limiting the amount of active connections, in which case trying again at a later time or trying another server may work
  3. The whole config or the certificate in the config is out of date, in which case contacting HMA for the config files should give you the latest files and then work (they have removed direct links to their config files so if you're using files you got from there before that could be it)
  4. An issue with the server you're trying to connect to, in which case trying another server should work

It was non of the reasons above then? If not, we do have a new firmware coming out soon so it would be worth seeing if it works on that when available.
