Hi, Maybe someone can tell me if I did something wrong? I am running Vista here at home and XP remotely. I set up a VPN network connection entry in the XP machine and followed the instructions at this URL to set up the Vista machine to be the server: http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.or...P/PPTPVPN.html I have a BEFSR41 router with all the proper VPN options turned on and port 1723 forwarded to the Vista machine. When I connect I enter my username & password. It basically sits at the verifying username/password box and finally times out. I'm not running any NAT or anything. The only difference with regards to that link is that I used my current user on the Vista machine to connect and did not create a new one. Any thoughts? This is very frustrating! |

BEFSR41 is VPN router. It should work. In most cases, VPN error is port
issue. Can you telnet port 1723? If you use Windows VPN, you may want to disable the router VPN. Also you may check if there is a new firmware for the outer. This search result may help too. Please post back with the result. Case Studies - VPN error 721 and 800Case Studies - VPN error 721 and 800.

Linksys VPN routers tend to not answer the Microsoft VPN - PPTP requests. They mainly do Linksys' version of IPSec. Also, you may need to check to see if the "destination" router will "allow VPN" or "PPTP" "passthorough" settings as it is not the router that is the destination point for the VPN requests. |
