    Do you have a DNS set for the Flex to use?

    Hi @andreive

    Not sure if it is related to your DNS settings. Please navigate to Configuration > System > DNS > Domain Zone Forwarder and add a setting as shown below:

    This will enable DNS queries by the Google DNS server 8.8.8.8. Thanks.

    If you go to Diagnostics > Network Tool with NSLOOKUP IPv4 and put in grc.com does it resolve?

    If you get tracetcp

    https://simulatedsimian.github.io/tracetcp_download.html

    run

    tracetcp d.myzyxel.com:443

    does it complete?
