Authorization Error on 2860 was created by geroi
Hi,

Suddenly one of our 2860 routers started showing intermittent Authorization Error - both from LAN and WAN side.

Rebooting router has to be done via telnet as the web page gives out the error. After reboot - no difference.
We've tried Firefox v55.0.3 in private mode, Chrome v61 in Private mode and the error is still there.
Firmware 3.8.2.3_BT

Has anyone seen this before ? We are running out of options here :/

Draytek released firmware (3.8.4.2) on 19/12/16, described as "Critical - Upgrade recommended immediately" so it might be wise to upgrade, before investigating further. Along with a security fix, it claims to fix issues with the "WUI" (Web User Interface?).

There have been several other firmware releases since then.

Thanks, noticed the firmware as well. I'll try it tonight if the UI allows me to upload it in the first place :(

Also, does anyone know if Draytek's UK newsletters work at all ?
I keep subscribing myself to it - but they don't send any routine notifications about firmware updates. I have heaps of APs 910c and 902 and their latest firmware has a glitch - so I desperately waiting for new one and by they looks I need to check the website every week as the newsletter doesn't exists.

FWIW, I did receive a email from "Draytek News" re: the Security Issue on 30/1/17 - there is an 'online' version, but my link is personalised and contains my email address :roll:
Also, see here: Vigor 2860 Firmware Release V3.8.5 (somewhat secretive, and not quite Production Quality in some respects...)

Hi Geroi,

Could you tell me what glitch is with the latest firmware for AP 910c? I am planning to buy few of these APs and I'd like to know what the issues are. Could you tell me how they behave in the real world?

Thanks,
Darek

Latest two firmwares 1.2.1. & 1.2.2 block communication between clients connected to the same AP and same SSID on 2 & 5GHZ. In my case it created a major hassle and we had to revert back to 1.2.0. I saw it on another thread on this forum that this has been identified and will be fixed in next firmware release. If you need anything else give me a shout on geroi (at) tlen dot pl :D
