Re: wrt54g with vpn pptp server behind it

I tested the VPN configuration by making a VPN connection from the another workstation on the lan. The connection worked as expected. Therefore, all signs point to the Linksys---however placing the machine in the DMZ did not work.

@cable.rogers

I had the exact same problem. W2K VPN would work locally but not through the router even after WiFi firmware upgrade. It turns out that I've also forwarded IPSEC to my Win2K server under Applications&Gaming->server Profiles->server IPSEC. Disabling it solved the problem. I guess the VPN client is trying both protocols (PPTP and IPSEC) to connect to the server and failing during IPSEC authentication because you don't have the required certificates on your server (this is my assumption and I may be wrong, but as I said not forwarding IPSEC to the server corrected the problem).

Same probs as WifiOnlooker: "I tested the VPN configuration by making a VPN connection from the another workstation on the lan. The connection worked as expected. Therefore, all signs point to the Linksys---however placing the machine in the DMZ did not work."

AND turning the Linksys's firewall totally off doesn't get me there, either. Win2003 server. Like pc319, I'm "The only thing I have set is under Applications&Gaming->Server Profiles->Server PPTP is checked and forwarded to the IP of my server. Don't enable anything under the VPN Server tab."

Using Wifi-box.net Release Version: 2.00.8.1h.wfb 15/01/2004. Almost ready to commit ritualistic suicide.

The Q
Try version pre6-i, that's the version I've been using for a couple of months now.

Thank you.

pre6-i did it.

I'm typing this now via dial up with a secure connection to the VPN.

Thank you. And thank you wifi.
