| reply to jschwar Re: 2701HG-b question with VPN
I apparently have an older 2701HG-B (which might have been a refurbished one that warranty replaced a 2700HG-B). Its firmware version is 5.29.47 (no updates available).
What VPN are you using. I use a SonicWall client (a version of ipsec) which is supposed to be NAT aware, and did not have to do anything special for it for my wireless laptop on the 2Wire. In rare cases when it did not work, it was odd hours or weekends when I was not even sure if the other end was allowing connections.
Does your VPN allow you to selectively set just certain subnets through the VPN, and other things still through your default network, or does it take complete control and route everything through the VPN? My SonicWall icon shows a green vertical bar when accessing something through the VPN and red bar for access not through the VPN. When disabled, the icon has a red diagonal slash through it. |

| I use the Cisco VPN client and I have a work laptop I am using from that location so there's not much I can do to it. It's corporate with all the rules and regulations of a big corporation. I doubt the problem is with the cisco VPN software, but I can see if there's an update from work. Do you need any other information from my 2wire gateway? I'm new to this forum and I haven't quite figured out the rules and the 2wire console yet.

| reply to efflandt I don't think the Cisco VPN client supports split tunneling which I think is what you are talking about. Either that or our company doesn't want us to use it. Probably the latter.
Also, my girlfriend is getting dropped connections on her Mac Book so the problems are not limited to my PC. -- Give us this day our daily chocolate. |
