Hi everyone I am posting this to see if anyone else is having the same issue. On some of the PCs where WatchGuard is installed Windows freezes on the user login screen for 5-10 minutes. This is mostly just Windows 11 on HP PCs. I uninstalled WatchGuard EPDR agents for those PCs and this seemed resolved the issue perfectly.
Hello, One of our developer workstations freezes several times a week since early October. It runs Windows 11 25H2 with 32 GB RAM and protection 8.00.26.0012. During an episode, file access is blocked and services time out. Then "NanoServiceMain: Service stopped" appears in the log and the PC recovers. We have had about 25…

Right now connection rules always take priority over program rules. In practice this means: if you have an allow connection rule for outbound…

Hello, The goal is to set up dedicated video conferencing kiosks, restricted via web access control. The issue is that Teams remains blocked. I cannot identify which category is causing the block. I am able to reach the following page: https://teams.live.com/dl/launcher/launcher.html?url=%2F_%23%2Fmeet%2F93343604XXXX…
Hello m290 + fw 12.12.3 This works great matching mail server hostnames The proxy examines the initial HELO/EHLO responses when the SMTP session is initialized. The default rules for the SMTP-Incoming proxy action make sure that packets with greetings that are too long, or include characters that are not correct or…
I'm looking to potentially block a small handful of external IP addresses to prevent traffic from those addresses traversing inbound via our Firebox. Is this best done via the WebBlocker app?
