FortiClient VPN and Net-Stick Dongle Mode Problem

 

I'm using FortiClient VPN 7.0.2.0090 to connect my laptop to the company network.

Note - the Net-Stick dongle mode connection appears as a network card connection like this:

Hello,

 

It is surely something related to your Net-Stick dongle.

Do you have the specific brand of this one?
