Default VPN disconnects when transferring files

I have one vista computer with a wired connection and one with a wireless
connection to my router. I am using the VPN client that comes with vista and
my connections are fine if I'm just hooking up to Exchange but if I try to
upload files of more than a few megabytes the VPN connection is lost. It can
immediately reconnect but the file copy will always cause it to disconnect.

I have 2 other computers doing the same tasks with XP and they never drop a
connection.

Another note is that the XP computers transfer the files about 6 to 8 times
faster.

The server on the other end is ISA 2004.

Thanks for any help

David

Default VPN disconnects when transferring files

Bob,

I wonder if it might be worth trying to turn off autotuning before tweaking the MTU in these cases?

TCP Autotuning ON
c:\netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=enabled

TCP Autotuning OFF
c:\netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=disabled

MTU was the issue. I manually added the registry info and changed the MTU
size to 1372. That fixed it. If the auto-tune does the same thing I may try
to play with those settings as well.

In any case, thanks for the help.
