Default COSY VPN protocol

[mairhead]

Can I assume that the default VPN protocol for the COSY (131 or 141) is UDP? (i.e. If I want to use TCP, I have to manually force it to TCP?)

That is 100% correct.

By default the eWON will use UDP as it is marginally faster.

You can however when running the Talk2M wizard select a checkbox to force
the connection to use TCP. If UDP tests invalid in the wizard as well, the eWON
will automatically force TCP.

I understand that, when online with a COSY, you can get into the maintenance settings and change from one protocol to the other. After you change the settings online, is it necessary to re-boot the device for the change to take effect?

Yes, you will want to reboot the unit to fully apply your selected change.

You can hit the reboot option from the maintenance page of the eWON UI.

There doesn’t seem to be a “maintenance” page for the COSY 131 (new-look GUI). How do I force TCP protocol remotely?

Cosy 131 Internet Connection problem

Hi Phil, There are two connections created one from the ewon to our VPN server and one from Ecatcher to the VPN server. When you force a TCP connection you are forcing this from the device you are on to our Talk2m VPN server. To force TCP on the ewon you will want to rerun the talk2m wizard. In the proxy section you should see advanced parameters where you can set the Force TCP option. [image] You can also edit the VPNProto parameter in the Concgf.cfg file. Setting 0 will use UDP and 1 is…
