05/21 May 21 – macOS Roaming Client v2.4.0 Beta

Version 2.4.0 of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Beta channel
. To install, download the latest beta installer from the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients → Beta Channel
.
What's New
IPv6 Support
– Filtering and protection now extend to IPv6 networks, keeping users on dual-stack and IPv6-only environments protected without falling back to unfiltered resolvers. Administrators can configure IPv4-only, IPv6-only, or automatic upstream resolution to fit their network.
Modernized Configuration Architecture
– The agent now uses a more resilient configuration format, replacing the legacy
daemon.conf
with
configuration.json
. Configuration changes apply more reliably without agent restarts, recoverable errors no longer cascade into broader issues, and existing installations migrate cleanly on upgrade.
🪲
Stability & Connectivity Fixes
  • Resolved an issue where DNS queries could fail on certain cellular and mesh network setups, causing slow or failed page loads
  • Addressed an edge case where connection reuse on DNS-over-TLS upstreams could cause the client to enter a fail-closed state on some devices
  • Resolved an intermittent issue where internal domains could fail to resolve through local resolvers in certain upgrade scenarios
  • Fixed an issue where the Roaming Client could go offline on certain ISP networks and require a manual restart to recover
This release brings IPv6 coverage and a stronger configuration foundation to the macOS Roaming Client, with meaningful stability improvements across network types and upgrade paths.

2/18 February 18 macOS Roaming Client v2.3.12 Beta

A new version of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Beta channel
. The latest installer is available in the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients
.
This Beta release focuses on reliability, local DNS accuracy, and improved connectivity across macOS environments.
🛠️ Improvements
  • Reliable Local Hostname Resolution
    – Non-FQDN hostnames (such as computer names) now resolve correctly using local DNS servers, ensuring consistent local network connectivity even if public DNS fails.
  • Correct Local Resolver Usage
    – Queries for
    .local
    domains and dashboard-configured local domains now properly use the specified local DNS resolvers instead of routing to our anycast network.
🪲 Bug Fixes
  • AirPrint Discovery Restored
    – Network printers now appear correctly when the Roaming Client is enabled.
  • Improved DoT/TLS Stability
    – Fixed intermittent connectivity issues affecting apps like Slack, Chrome, and Gmail when DNS-over-TLS was enabled.
  • DNSProxy Reliability
    – Resolved an issue where the DNSProxy process could unexpectedly stop on certain 2.3.x builds.

1/21 January 21 macOS Roaming Client v2.3.9 Beta

A new version of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Beta channel
. The latest installer is available in the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients
.
✨ What’s New
Travel Wi-Fi Mode (MDM support)
Travel Wi-Fi settings can now be deployed via MDM to help users connect on restrictive captive portal networks, including inflight Wi-Fi.
🪲 Bug Fixes
  • Dashboard Last Sync / Last Query Time
    – Fixed an issue where Roaming Client timestamps (Last Sync / Last Query) were not updating reliably in the dashboard.
  • DoT/TLS connectivity reliability
    – Fixed an issue that could cause connectivity problems in some environments when DoT/TLS was enabled.
  • Local Resolver priority order
    – Fixed an issue where Local Resolvers could be tried in a random order instead of the order configured by admins.
⚠️ Known Issues
  • Inflight / Viasat network connectivity
    – Connectivity issues may still occur on inflight networks and other Viasat-based providers.
    Travel Wi-Fi Mode
    was designed to assist in this scenario.
  • DoT/TLS intermittent page errors and certificate issues (macOS 2.3.3+)
    – Some users may still experience intermittent page errors and certificate issues when DoT/TLS is enabled. We’re actively investigating.

12/10 December 10 - macOS Roaming Client v2.3.8 Production

A new version of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Production channel
. Organizations with
Automatic Updates
enabled will receive this release incrementally. The latest installer is available in the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients
.
✨ What’s New
Travel Wi-Fi Mode
(manual option)
Adds a manual option that opens a brief window for captive-portal sign-in on networks where the page normally cannot load. Protection resumes automatically when the window ends.
Diagnostics: Fix Installation Issues
Adds a new
Fix Installation Issues
option in the tray Diagnostics menu, offering guided self-service for common installation and configuration problems.
🛠️ Improvements
Network & DNS Reliability
Improved handling of network changes and wake-from-sleep events to reduce instances of Offline states or stalled DNS resolution.
Configuration Clarity
Clearer messaging when configuration issues occur and improved processing of local domains to reduce unnecessary external lookups.
TLS Enforcement Update
Forced TLS is no longer required but remains supported, improving compatibility across varied network environments.
Setup Experience
The tray icon now launches automatically after installation to streamline first-time setup.
🪲 Bug Fixes
  • Configuration Parsing Stability
    – Fixed issues that caused startup failures when configuration files contained invalid values.
  • DNS Recovery Fixes

  • Certificate Installation
    – Corrected failures during certificate setup.
  • AirPrint Visibility
    – Fixed cases where printers did not appear when the client was active.
  • Extension Stability
    – Addressed crashes related to missing GDPR data and improved behavior during service unresponsiveness.
  • Plus general performance and stability improvements across the client.
⚠️ Known Issues
Connectivity issues may still occur on inflight networks and other Viasat-based providers.

12/03 December 3 - macOS Roaming Client v2.3.8 Beta

A new version of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Beta Release Channel
. Agents on the Beta channel will auto-update within
24–72 hours
.
✨ What’s New
Travel Wi-Fi Mode
(manual option)
  • Adds a manually enabled option that opens a short window for captive-portal sign-in on networks where the page normally cannot load due to DNS proxying, such as inflight or hotel Wi-Fi.
  • Allows users to load the sign-in page and connect, then automatically returns to normal DNSFilter protection once the window ends.
🛠️ Improvements
Reliability during network changes
  • Improves recovery in cases where the agent could previously show an Offline state or stop resolving DNS after a network change, reducing the need to restart the device and helping maintain stable connectivity.
Captive portal behavior
  • Improves how captive-portal sign-in pages load, reducing situations where the portal would stall or fail to appear on public Wi-Fi networks such as hotels, airports, and cafés.
This Beta update focuses on improving stability and reliability for macOS Roaming Client users.
🪲 Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a configuration parsing issue that could prevent the client from starting correctly
  • Improved DNS handling to avoid resolution failures after connection drops or when waking from sleep
This version is available for download from the Roaming Clients dashboard to Beta participants under v2.3.3.
