<title>How can I set up a VPN service that goes through my router?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23264647</link>
<description><![CDATA[OK, here's my situation. I live outside the US and there are many sites that will not work outside the US. For example, HULU, Pandora, Netflicks, etc.

I run one laptop using Hotspot VPN for when I hit Starbucks, etc. I can also use this laptop for surfing to "forbidden" sites outside US, even from home network.

Here is what I would like to do. I would like all computers on my network (they all connect wirelessly) to be able to be routed through a VPN via my router. That way no matter what computer I'm using, I can get access to the sites I want. Oh, and a PS3 as well.

Are there ways to configure my router for this (Dlink DIR-655) or is there a home solution such as routing all traffic through another machine? Suggestions appreciated!]]></description>

<title>Cisco VPN VZWireless and Snow Leopard</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23269706</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have an error 51 issue and maybe one of you have experienced this before.

I'm happy to say that my VPN client works fine with Apple Snow Leopard when I connect via WIFI or Ethernet.

When I'm online with VZ Wireless, I can't connect with the VPN.  Instead, I get this message:

Error 51: Unable to communicate with the VPN subsystem.
Please make sure that you have at least one network interface that is currently active and has an IP address and start this application again.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  The VPN is 4.9.01 (0030)

Thanks,

bg]]></description>

<title>2 BEFSX41 end points, 2WIRE, NETOPIA and problems</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23252587</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm trying to connect our two offices with a VPN tunnel.

I bought two BEFSX41 VPN end points, and flashed both of them with 1.45.7, as I read in another post on this forum that that was the most stable. I then tested a tunnel between them by connecting an ethernet cable from two LAN ports of a third router into each of the BEFSX41's WAN ports, and the tunnel connected no problems.

I then tried to set them up, one at each office, and could not get a tunnel to connect.

Office A has a Motorola 3347-02 modem/router with a static IP.
Office B has a 2Wire 2701HG-B modem/router (no static IP).

The BEFSX41 connected to the Netopia I set up with the static IP in the BEFSX41's setup. 
I managed to get the 2Wire to go into bridged mode (that screen is not easy to find) so that the BEFSX41 is now handling the PPPoE and getting the WAN IP.

Both get internet access no problem, but the VPN tunnel will not connect.

I'm thinking the problem is the 2Wire's firewalls are blocking the VPN since there doesn't seem to be any VPN pass through settings that I can find, and I'm guessing it's intended for basic home use.  I'll try replacing it with a basic DSL modem tomorrow, but I was hoping someone might have some ideas as to why the tunnel will not establish, or confirm it is the 2Wire.

Also, I'm wondering if there's any settings I need to change on the Netopia 3347 to get it to work with my VPN end points.

Thank you for your help in advance.]]></description>
