Hi

I have just moved to version 6 and I now get a popup that says "foreign network detected, activate a VPN for remote acces". I am on my local wifi network. What could be the issue?

I am also being told that I am offline with my iPhone and online with my iPad, why is that? They ar both on my home network, and I am on the same iCloud account.

Thanks!

Go to the Homes panel and enter the proper Wi-Fi SSID for the Home. Due to Apple restrictions, it's not set for upgrading users so as noted in the What's New file, it should be set manually.
