    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Barboots, I really think we have different apps. Mine is version 3.0.5 and I do not have that menu things going like yours. And mine says "<- Settings Save" in the blue banner. No FnFast either. So, I tried the L to R and R to L swipes and nothing. Suspect it has something to do with...

    Barboots, working on an answer to your question. SouthernYankee, Sprint is my cell provider. And Centurylink is my ISP. No I have not changed the port cause Nayr said that they can still run a scanner and find my port number. I have not tried to go someonewhere and use their WiFi. Great...

    Video stream lost playing back alerts via web interface

    Jason R are you by chance saying that on your cellphone you cant play alerts or clips? I just in the past week started to have problems like that.
