I have experienced similar problems with a win7 ultimate amd64 machine. I have always attributed my VPN stability issues to a combination of WiFi and poor underlying internet connection. I have about 15 linux machines, 4 windows 7/8, and 2 raspberry pis all running tinc on varying vpn subnets and varying connections. I've had only one windows 7 machine with stability issues, most likely due WiFi and other factors... On May 5, 2014 12:03 PM, "Larry Smith" <[email protected]> wrote:
