| Changing URL
I am trying to get to a specific internal site at my company via VPN. The VPN is working as normal for all the other sites. When I try to go to a specific site that has a .asp url, I get redirected to another site that has the same prefix but a .com url. The internal site is steweb/xxxx/xxxx.asp What I get is www.steweb.com It is a issue with fios because I can get into my neighbors wireless which is another ISP and it works just fine. I am scratching my head over this one. |

| What site?
I think you are comparing apples and oranges here. You said it doesn't work when you're VPN'd over FiOS, but does when you connect directly with a neighbor's internet. Have you tried directly with FiOS? Or are you saying you are VPN'd in on both connections and it only works when you're VPN'd into the other ISP?

It only works when I am VPN'd in the neighbors wireless on a different ISP. It seems that my FIOS connection is redirecting the URL. |

Forest Grove, OR | Sounds like a dns issue if a non-fully qualified domain (e.g. no .com, etc at the end of the hostname) is being used and getting resolved differently than expect.
Try using the IP address of your company's "steweb" machine in the URL. |

Why will it work on another ISP and not on FIOS? I am using the same VPN on both. |

| said by swantzilla  :Why will it work on another ISP and not on FIOS? I am using the same VPN on both. Not entirely sure but it *sounds* like a DNS issue. Browser will auto-redirect from a non-qualified hostname to hostname+.com if it can't resolve the hostname.
If it works with an IP address then it would point to a DNS issue. Have you tried that? |
