Like Hooked_on_Sony said, remove the Ethernet 300 software. That is the problem because it does the PPoE negotiation and that conflicts with the VPN client on your PC. RasPPoE is an option or just buy a psudo firewall/router like the NetGear RP114 ($96 at Best Buy)since it will pass IPSec and PPTP. Punch Buggy is right that since the router will do the PPoE negotiation, you can remove the Ethernet 300 program from your PC and not have to deal with it ever again. The router stays connected.

I was expecting the worst since the RP114 was a breeze to setup and network my two pcs (both Win2k). I figured the VPN would be a real pain. It was as simple as booting the pc (already connected to the internet since the router is always on and connected) and starting the VPN client. I was accessing company info in less than a minute.

HTH,

so what exactly is a punch buggy (or where does the term come from)...my 7 year old daughter yells that out everytime she sees a VW!

---

She doesn't hit you or any of her siblings? :) It's just a little game. Basically whoever spots a Beetle during a road trip (this is when my brother and I played it) gets to punch whoever misses it. At least that is how my brother and I played it when we were very young :). So you look for Beetles and have some fun. So, say there is a yellow Beetle cruising down the road. If you spot it first, you say "punch buggy yellow" and proceed with punching the other person. Better excuse for hitting a younger brother than "he's hogging the armrest" or "he's staring at me"... all the typical bickering brothers/sisters do after being cooped up in a car for a few hours...

Do I have to have Windows 98 to download this RAS PPPOE?

Another option for you, would be to pick up a router of some sort. (Cayman, Linksys, Netgear) I came across a customer in the resent past who had the same problem, and moving the PPP negotiation off the computer and on to a piece of hardware cleared it up immediately. I am going to assume you are using the Alcatel Speed Touch Home since Win 95 does not support USB, so this should not be to terribly difficult for you to do. Please understand that if you have any problems in the future with your ADSL, and need to call the helpdesk, you will have to disconnect the router and reload the NTS client to receive any support.

»www.netgear.com/

»www.linksys.com

Hope this helps....

I don't know for sure, but the author's FAQ states that Win95 is not supported. Hopefully Leevis is correct and it'll work even if not specifically supported. Good luck.

When I install the VPN, I cannot use the DSL.
I get this error: Error 0087 Tap does not have IP address, Tap driver not ready.
Does anyone know what this means and does anyone have a solution? I am using windows 95 on this laptop. My VPN people have no solution and think its Bellsouth's problem. Bellsouth says I can't use VPN with Win 95, which I don't believe is true. Help!
