    Hello,

     

     

    Sorry to hear you're having trouble. Can you tell us if you're using a Firepass, or the Edge gateway? This will help us determine how to help.

     

     

    Cheers,

  • I am having the same problem as listed above. I use the Big-IP client to connect but I get a "Network Access Connection Device was not found" error when I try to connect with Windows 8. Is there something that I could install on my end that would fix the problem?

    hi Ehurst, which version of BIG-IP are you running? You'll need to be running 11.2.0 or higher (with possible hotfix application needed): http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm-clientcompmatrix-11-2-1.html

     

    thanks

    I amend that statement, you need at least v11.1.0 with a hotfix: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm-clientcompmatrix-11-1-0.html
  • Hmm, this is what is under Version Information

     

     

    Build version. . . . . . : 7005,2012,125,1

     

    API version. . . . . . . : 7005,2012,125,17

     

  • Is it possible to get a link to the updated version that I could download myself??

    Looks like Edge Client major version 7005 corresponds to BIG-IP v10.2.4: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/700/sol13757.html

     

     

    Windows 8 compatibility is a BIG-IP as well as Edge Client feature, so that probably means that you'll need to upgrade BIG-IP to at least v11.1.0 with a hotfix.
