RE: Strange VPN Problem

I was having the same issue. I did not find the problem per say, but a
upgrade on the client's router/firewall fixed it. Happen around the time the
blaster thing hit.

We also did the smaller MTUs, but only the upgrade fixed it.

Datalink firewall/router (not sure of model).

Hi,

Get the log from the conntivity client and send them to the list (assuming
it is not too big, hold sensitive info etc..). Other than that it is
difficult to guess. What type of vpn router/server/switch/thing does this
client connect to ?
