Connection drops on battery power in Monterey
I've used this app for years, it's been... adequate. But now, on Monterey, whenever I unplug my MacBook from the charger, the VPN connection drops. WITHOUT leaving my home wifi, or closing the clamshell. The workarounds I've found all involve checking the option "Prevent your Mac from automatically sleeping when the display is off" in power/battery settings, but in Monterey (12.6) this option is NOT AVAILABLE in the Battery panel. (If I leave the Mac plugged in, the same connection can stay up for days.) Another annoyance is saving passwords for connections. It's available in the UI, but it usually ignores the saved password and prompts me to enter. OK fine, but then once a week or so it DOES use my saved password. Like, just to tease me with how much easier life could be!
United StatesDon't upgrade to Ventura
Since Beta 6, I can no longer connect to our VPN. Issue reported to Apple and Sonicwall.
United StatesDoesn't work for Global VPN Client
It just doesn't work.
United StatesUneccessary Headache
I don't understand why Sonicwall is seemingly the only "major" vendor that requires a standalone app to use a client VPN. It just creates an additional step to authenticate on macOS, because apparently the built-in client isn't good enough, even though that works just fine for the other five appliances I VPN into.
United StatesWorks Great
It works great on Monterey and earlier macOS versions. I've been using this app for many years without issues. Make sure you're OS and software are running the latest versions and you likely will not have issues.
United StatesDoes not work with Monterey
Please update ASAP! We've been going round-and-round with tech support to no avail. Monterey broke the app for all our mac users!
United StatesDoesn't work on Monterey
Completely unable to sign in on monterey now... unusable
