Packet loss and drops on the UTM after 9.605-1 upgrade

Hi Dan,

i had many problems with 9.605 and i have decided to go back to 9.604.

Best regards

Tim

Yeah it frankly sucks. Second upgrade that has broken the UTM in a year and I have to reinstall and restore.

Management is pretty hot about it and asking me to look for another solution now. It's a shame too, because it worked so well....

I was abut to upgrade a customers FW to this version, has support said anything about it?

Is there a fix being worked on?

there seems to be a lot of issues that seem to fall through the cracks of the UTM firmware, e.g. Red50 and the bricking (found out to my cost)

What were your  problems?   Did you involve support?   The rest of us want to avoid your nightmares, so wr crave details.

the Red50 Issue that has just had an advisory, which if you order a new one unless you know about it, Sophos does not inform you about said advisory (I received mine about the same time as the Advisory was released, I now have a lovely paperweight);

and see the following issues with the Red50;

I hope this helps you out.

Even if the RED 50 is no longer covered by its 1-year warranty, I would open a Support case to get it RMA'd.  If 1st-level Support can't do that, request escalation.  I can't imagine that Sophos would refuse to replace a unit killed by a flawed Up2Date.
