The 7.20.3 was built in 28th October, but we did not want to publicly release it until PPPoE server fix was available. The one major issue a lot of users reported for v7.20. This 7.20.3 version however was needed for a new device for factory installation.

Now that PPPoE server fix is available, we have released both version, the 7.20.4 being the latest stable.

Hi,

Does it mean that 7.20.3 has PPPoE bug and it is a factory version for some devices (guessing hAP ax S)?

There was this one guy who claimed he only installs "factory only releases" because, logically, those must be the most stable ones.

Interesting… In old times factory only releases were not publicly available for download, but this one actually is.

Upgraded my test Chateau LTE6 device form 7.20.2 to 7.20.4 and noticed I couldn’t connect remotely using my L2TP config. Arrived home and ported into my test Chateau using Winbox, found the LTE was running, but failed to show band info. Signal was flatlined. Disabled and enabled LTE interface and signal swung back to normal levels.

I disconnected from my home network and tried to connect remotely again, but failed. Reconnected to home network, rebooted router and waited for it to come online again then connected in again remotely and still wouldn’t connect via L2TP.

Hooked back up to home network again, connected to my test Chateau via Winbox and rolled back to 7.20.2. Remoted in again and viola! L2TP connected again and I was able to access Winbox again remotely. Tested remotely in other locations, all good there too.

Suspect an issue with 7.20.4 since 7.20.2 offers no problems.
