<description><![CDATA[Hey

I'm a bit paranoid, so i would like to make sure that my internet connection only works through my vpn.

The idea is that if my vpn disconnects then i have no internet connection. And when it reconnects then i have a internet connection again.

<title>Connecting to a Cisco VPN through a home network</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20470306</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi There,

I'm trying to connect to my offices VPN from home.  When i connect directly to my dsl modem i have no problems but when i'm connected to my router I get the message 

"Secure VPN connection terminated by the client.  the remote peer is no longer responding."

I'm using Cisco System VPN client 4.8.  I'm connecting from a vista machine but have also tried it from an XP machine with the same results.

I'm pretty clueless when it comes to setting this type of thing up.  What steps do i need to take to get this working?]]></description>

<title>VPN connects, Nothing More</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20474493</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am running a WRVS440N, on a DSL network.
I have configured it (as best I can w/ my limited experience.
When I run the QuickVPN, it gets: Connecting, Verifying Server...and then times out, message says Gateway did not respond, you will now be disconnected.
I DID have it before where it would go to "Connected" and then nothing else.
I was unable to map a drive, or connect to the Exchange box.Seemed there was no Authentication page.
Ideas?]]></description>

<title>Server 2k3 cannot connect to VPN via L2TP over IPsec</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20450497</link>
<description><![CDATA[I recently set up a VPN server on a 2k3 machine, and it worked flawlessly when I had the client select "Type of VPN: Automatic". However, when I manually changed the type to L2TP over IPsec, entered a PSK (This is using the built in Vista VPN CLient), then in the Routing and Remote Access configuation, I right click my server name, go to properties, then the security tab, and check "Allow custom IPsec policy for L2TP connections" and enter the same PSK, attempting to connect to the server generates the following client error: "Error 732: Your computer and the remote computer could not agree on PPP control protocols."

One the server in Event Viewer I get: "Unable to add the interface {FE282F3E-B086-43D9-8AD5-AFC281B11CB0} with the Router Manager for the IP protocol. The following error occurred: Cannot complete this function."

Any suggestions as to what I can do to solve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Sorry to cross-post, but I also posted about this in the MS forum, but wasn't able to get a solution. However, I put up a bunch of screenshots here:

<title>CISCO VPN 4.0.5 kills my network connection</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20505630</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello all.

I need to install the above software to access a clients system. I'm running WinXP Pro. 

When i install the above software there are no options etc on install. The app installs correctly and prompts for a reboot. Once my machine restarts i have lost all network connections. I am unable to get my mail from our exchange server, browse the net or access any other server based resources.

When i check my network connections it shows the Cisco VPN connection as being disabled and my usual network connection as being enabled.....both as expected. 

Can anyone shed any light on this? 

Thanks.]]></description>

<title>VPN and FIOS</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20472109</link>
<description><![CDATA[URL=http://www.speedtest.net]  [/URL]

I need help from the networking gurus at this site. I've had DSL before and had no issues with VPN to my company's server. I use Cisco VPN Client 4.0.5 D to connect. I recently upgraded to FIOS 15/2. When not connected to VPN, the speed is great. But once I'm on VPN, the above speed comes up. Sometimes it's even slower, all the way down to less than 500kbps. My company's internet aggregator, iPass said they do not support FIOS yet because of this issue. They have no idea why this is happening on fiber and not on DSL or Cable. I used my iPass provided router, Zyxel g2000 plus V2, same results. I used my own router, Buffalo WHR-HP-54G on Tomato 1.19, still the same results. The same results with Verizon's Actiontec router. 
Cisco connects via IPsec over UDP port 4500 (NAT-PAT?). I have forwarded ports 500, 50, 51, 1700, 1723, 4500. I played with different MTUs, my company's MTU is 1300, TCP window size but still no luck.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.]]></description>

<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20455967</link>
<description><![CDATA[I want to simulate vpn connection using Open VPN between two computers within the same LAN, it is not wireless. The type of connection I want to establish is tunneling.
How can I achieve that? Can other computers in the LAN ping to   my Open VPN client and/or server when the VPN is active?
Thank you in Advance]]></description>
