crp Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 from what i've seen and read, the new laptops with the Qualcomm chips can not run VPNs. Aside from how ridiculous it seems to me to have such a device that can't do VPNs , what is it about VPN that is so hard to implement?

goretsky Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 (edited) Hello, If memory serves, some types of VPN functionality require the installation of a specific NDIS filter driver from the VPN provider, instead of using what's built in to Windows. It could be that VPN manufacturers need to write new ARM64 drivers to support this functionality, or perhaps the driver development kit for them was delivered late and/or with incomplete documentation.

securitybreach Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Odd, my raspberry Pis are ARM and they connect to a vpn just fine (mullvad). This sounds like a windows issue and not on the processor side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Yup, it's a window's issue: Beware: Most VPN apps won't work on Copilot Plus PCs (Updated) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
