I’ve recently reactived my NSG300 after full factory reset and I’m running the default configuration, without any custom firewall rules, no application patrol or any other paid security services.
Unfortunately, web.whatsapp.com can now no longer generate QR codes to link the mobile devices.
Is there anything specific to be configured, like specific NAT rules?

    Hi Melen, strange enough, it is working again today. I've tried with the same browsers on different devices where it did not work yesterday and now it is just fine. No idea if that was some temporary glitch on WhatsApp or anything else. Sorry for the confusion.

    Hi @blechkiste

    I use my NSG200 and open the link you provide, it can generate the RQ codes.
    Could you enable Zyxel support for me to check and provide your org name?
    Please go to Help > Support request > Zyxel support access to enable and save. Thanks.
