Default Cannot connect to VPN with Base Station



Hi

I have Windows XP on my desktop which is hardwired to a MN-
700(Microsft Wireless Router)

When I try to access the CISCO VPN from that machine, It
checks my userid,password the does a
"Securing communication channel..."
and then fails with "Remote peer terminated connection."

I think this might have to do with the NAT that the
wireless router runs, however I have not been able to work
around it

I have tried "Enabling IPSEC over UDP and TCP with a
particular port" but that has not worked, I have also
tried disabling NAT from the Router itself but that has
totally stopped my internet connectivity

All of this works fine when I take away the Router from
the picture

Any thoughts?

Thanks



Vineet

try changing the IP address of the base station to 192.168.1.1
(instead of 192.168.2.1) and the range handed out to clients to
192.168.1.*

I believe there is a setting in the Cisco client for NAT
compatibility. (which version Cisco client are you using?)

Default Re: Cannot connect to VPN with Base Station

I tried changing the range, still does not help
I am using CISCO 3.6.1 with a NAT compatible,
I have done port forwarding still does not work,
however on further investigation I find that when I do
netstat -ano, the cisco is using a udp port 65250 and the
host it is using is localhost(127.0.0.1) I changed my
localhost in hosts file to my local pc address but issue
repeats itself

thanks
Vineet

You should open a support incident with the PS folks and get a SR# to
track this issue. There isn't anything else I can suggest.
