June Windows preview updates fix VPN, RDP, RRAS, and Wi-Fi issues
2022-06-24 10:11

Redmond published three cumulative updates as part of its scheduled June 2022 monthly "C" updates to allow customers to test upcoming fixes: KB5014668, KB5014665, and KB5014669.

As the company revealed on Thursday in updates to known issue entries in the Windows health dashboard [1, 2, 3], the updates also address connectivity issues when using Wi-Fi hotspots after installing Windows updates released as part of the June 2022 Patch Tuesday.

Customers using newer Windows 10 releases, Windows 8.1, Windows 7 SP1, and several Windows Server versions will likely have to wait for more updates to be released during next month's Patch Tuesday or as out-of-band updates.

Microsoft has also yet to officially acknowledge VPN and RDP connection issues affecting RRAS servers after installing the June Windows Server updates on the Windows health dashboard and provide a list of affected Windows platforms.

One of the more severe issues reported so far is the servers freezing for several minutes after a client connects to the RRAS server with SSTP. Microsoft told BleepingComputer after we reported the ongoing problems that admins can also temporarily disable the NAT feature on RRAS servers to fix these problems until a fix is released.

Even though Microsoft hasn't publicly acknowledged this yet, Windows admins have discovered that Thursday's preview updates also provide a fix for these problems.
