After doing this for anywhere from 30-60 seconds, their VPN session gets dropped. If I monitor a ping to their PC over the VPN while they transfer, or a Ping to their External IP, as soon as they transfer, it will start dropping Ping, or I get responses in the 100's of ms. (Varies by user, some with 1-2mbit upload, some with 10mbit or so). What I notice, is the upload will saturate the users home connection utilizing all available bandwidth. When transferring large files, mostly over SMB although its done it on HTTPS uploads too, users after a little bit will get disconnected with the message "NetExtender has been disconnected for one of the following reasons: There was a break in the network connection - The connection was idle for longer than the configured idle timeout.". It also happens on the Linux client that I tested. Client versions does not matter (8.x through the latest 10.2.315), and OS version does not matter (Thoughrally tested with Windows 7, W10 1507-21H1, and W11).

What are the key features of SonicWall NetExtender?Įnforce security: Combining SonicWall NetExtender with SonicWall Capture Client allows administrators to require every remote user to have the latest versions of anti-virus and anti-spyware software in order to optimize the internal security.
