New Microsoft Updates Could Fix Broken VPN

671

Microsoft recently released previews of three new updates which will be able to fix connectivity issues says TechRadar.

  • Reportedly, Microsoft is coming up with three major updates to fix certain bugs.
  • These could possibly fix the broken VPN.
  • The NAT feature on RRAS might be temporarily disabled.

New Updates

The company published three cumulative updates, one for Windows 11, the second for Windows Server 2022 and the third one for Windows 10. Other than the usual bugs, these updates also address issues regarding Wi-FI hotspots as reported earlier.  The fix is great news for regular users and for the time being only these three versions of the OS resolve the issue. Meanwhile, Windows 10(other than 1809), Windows 8.1, or Windows 7 SP1 users will have to wait a little longer for these updates. 

Unaddressed Flaws

The patch also introduced new flaws. Namely, issues with the sign-in process for Azure Active Directory, as well as Microsoft 365 on Arm devices. According to the Bleeping Computer, Microsoft still hasn’t acknowledged broken VPN and RDP connection issues that are afflicting servers. Now, people have also started reporting issues with LLTP/SSTP VPN clients, as well as RDP failing to connect. Among the more troubling problem is the server freezing for minutes, after a client connects to the RRAS server with SSTP.

As the Microsoft team reports, their solution, for now, is to temporarily disable the NAT feature on RRAS servers.
