Win11 reconnecting issue

[setofaces]

Hi there. VPN doesnt work properly on my windows 11. Connection is established well in checkpoint, but after sometime (5-10s) everlasting reconnecting appears, also after shutdown of the client I have no ethernet access for some time, disable/enable wi-fi connection few time helps after some time. It seems like some conflict between checkpoint adapter and windows 11 adapter. What can I do in that case? 

Version tried: 87.20, 88.00

VPN works fine among my other colleagues, not sure about win 11 though, so its client only issue it seems

Which build of Windows 11, is this an ARM based machine?

Have you tried with E88.41?

Machine was x64, windows is latest. Tried changing interface metrics numbers as someone mentioned in similar problem - didn't help.  Decided to install win10 instead. Topic can be closed.

I was going to suggest thatm then saw your update. I actually had exact same issue in the lab in windows11 and I installed base E88.00 client and worked fine. Not sure why that failed for you, but glad you got it sorted out.

Hi 
I have the same reconnecting issue with win 11 version 10.0.26100.1. Client version E88.00 does not solve the problem.
On the other PC using ver 10.0.22631.4830, using the  same vpn client setting, working fine.
Looks like the previous windows update killed it, uninstallation of it did not help.

I have just tried client version E88.60 which is not working either.
Any idea?

And the other PC that works, is it exact same windows version (same updates)?

Its against community policies to copy sk content, so I cant do that for you, sorry. You may want to see if someone else in your company would have access to the content, as it clearly states what needs to be modified on the gateway.

Thanks.
If you check the situation from helicopter view and from client perspective, this is quite ridiculous.
Any updated installer available soon?

[Chris_Atkinson]

E88.62 was already released, otherwise E88.70 / E89.00 will follow in due course.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info, I just tried E88.62 and looks to be working good with windows version 10.0.26100.1
No reconnects for 10+ minutes.

Looks like I will not need the content of the sks bound to valid contracts.

Thanks again for the help to all contributors.

Hi

Just a follow up: Just reinstalled the Windows 11 Insider preview 10.0.26120.3073 update, and the client E88.62 is still performing as it should.

Thanks again

I also tested in the lab, very good. Glad its fixed for you.

You always needed valid contract to access such articles.
