What changed? Clearer warnings that gateway modes depend on firmware—you assume compatibility risk.
For Android TV, sideload builds share accounts with phone clients but need separate DNS checks.
Action items
Back up router config before experiments.
Prefer app-level VPN when gateway mode is unsupported.
What you should do
Force-quit the app after updating, reopen, and re-login if servers/subscriptions look stale.
If in-app update fails, grab the build from the download page and overlay install.
If something breaks
Disconnect VPN, set protocol to Auto, reconnect; reinstall only as a last resort.
When UI differs from release notes, trust the installed build and check FAQ for maintenance banners.
