Re: VPN PPTP

It is meant to address a few issues, I know the bold ones are ones that many of you have experienced.

PPTP VPN Protocol
Guide information missing occasionally
Occasional errors deleting >35 shows on the DVR
Better support for Sprint Airave devices
Buffer updating when shows are paused

Also, there's a few performance and stability upgrades that should help overall.

Dan, I was told that the new software update will be available next week from a WOW customer service personal, is there any truth to that? I just got WOW yesterday and was unaware of this issue. This is a deal breaker for if I can't VPN in to work. I am seriously going back to COMCAAST if I cant VPN into work.

As I stated back a few posts, the plan is to roll out the upgrade to different markets over the entire week. By the end of next week, everyone should have the update.

Great news! Just connected and logged in to VPN over PPTP. Apparently things are working, at least for me. Thanks!

Got the update but now have video issues

CableCARD is not validated with the host. Kind of disappointed with this since we can not watch tv now.

There will be no confirmation on your side when the update completes. If you're still having issues on Saturday, then please call customer service and have them check out if all the updates completed for your equipment.
