Bug Fixes 🪲
  • Fixed a bug that could cause DNS resolution to fail when RC is running on a network environment with IPv6 enabled.
  • When an request to access a local domain fails due to unreachable local resolvers, a failover to DNSFilter resolvers will be attempted.
  • Fixed an issue in the Roaming Client Dashboard that would truncate hostnames of Windows RC users.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause manually configured network settings to not be correctly restored when the RC is stopped or uninstalled.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause internet connectivity to fail (DNS set to 127.0.0.0) when a conflicting VPN is running that prevents the RC from starting as expected.
