The Router’s ports and Reset button are located on the back panel of the Router.You can find a small push button with "Reset" written above it.
You can use the reset button:
If the Router is having problems connecting to the Internet. Press the Reset button for just a second with a paper clip or a pencil tip.
If you are experiencing extreme problems with the Router and have tried all other troubleshooting measures, press and hold in the Reset button for about 10 seconds. This will restore the factory defaults and clear all of the Router’s settings, such as port forwarding or a new password.
All The Best!!!

1.Your router is set up for multicast automatically
2.Look at the QOS or traffic shaping.

Try this. At a command prompt, type 'ping www.mydomain.com' without the quotes and sub your domain for 'mydomain'. see if it resolves to an IP address or fails to connect.

If it resolves and you get 4 results, the problem is on your end. Place the IP address in your browser's address bar and nothing else. Example: 209.191.93.53 will give you www.yahoo.com. This bypasses the dns server of your provider and your cache. If the IP address gets your website, then clear your temp int files and cookies. Also check that your firewall will let it pass, windows and antivirus.

If the ping test fails, then the problem is that your service provider has not updated his dns server to pick up your new IP address. This will probably cure itself in 48 hours.

Hi there,

Did you ever manually try and setup IPSec tunnel witn XP?
Did you ever have a previous version of QuickVPN installed?

I've found that if you've tryed to setup IPSec and then installed a previous version of quickvpn, you'll never ever get it to work.

If you have a new clean install of XP and the latest quickvpn. it works.
I've had to do this on two computers to get it to work.

Thanks

non public ips mean the 192.168.x.x. addresses you are referring to ... since they form a virtual private network it is normal .. see if ping protocol is disabled ..the other router just discarding the ping packets... you may have to check the route a packet is taking without VPN ...it can be complex without a network diagram.

The university that I attend compiled a great guide for setting up their VPN off campus. These should work for you as well:

So far as I can tell, you shouldn't have to change the settings on your router to access a VPN from your home.

They are defective i have gone through like 5 or 6 of them before sending them all back i would sacrifice the gigabit and go with the RV042

NO those routers are horrible.....return them as defective if you can and get the rv042 yes they are only 10/100 but they work.

Try to configure MTU setings on both router. You can try 1492 as the MTU value. Make sure that firmware are updated on both router.

Tell, are you accessing the VPN from the ATT connection or from outside from some other connection?

The 512Kb Upload is very limited and will be very slow on transfering files, So if you are at the ATT connection you can download a good speed, but you can't send, its very slow. So if you are outside of the ATT connection you will get 512KB which is very slow around 50KB/s - more or less.

it seem that your best bet would be to look into remote access programs that can be found easily on google.com. I would suggest browsing some of the options you find on there.

hint: if your looking for a no cost solution, simply add the keyword freeware in the google search bar

What are the settings that you have for your netgear router? Its going to tunnel, right? Try this solutions and see it will work.

1. Access the set-up page of the router, from a browser, type 192.168.1.1
2. Go to VPN tab and select IP SEC VPN
3. Local Security Group, set it to subnet and input the Network Address of the router (LAN IP - 192.168.1.0)
4. Remote Security Group, set it to subnet and input the Network Address of the netgear router (LAN IP, for example - 192.168.2.0)
5. Remote Secure Group, set it to IP only, WAN IP address of the netgear router
6. For Key Managemnt, just make sure that all settings are identical with the netgear router
7. Last go to Advanced Settings and make sure that group settings are identical to the netgear router

Hope it works for you

Unplug the power cables of the router and the range extender for 30 seconds. Plug in the router first. Wait for all the lights to be stable then plug in the range extender. Your range extender should now be in synchronized with your router.

Frontier Router Login at the bottom of the Network Connections window, just below the address bar. Select Wireless Properties from the menu. Locate the Network security key field on the Security tab. You'll see your Wi-Fi network password if you click the box for Show characters.

You can use rj45 cable to it .

This seems to be a symptom of a configuration error, which can be fixed by resetting the router to factory default. Do this by finding the (often partially hidden) reset button on the device, and pressing and holding down the button, with the power on, till lights start flashing on the router. Let go of the button and allow the router to reset (can take a minute or two). You will now have reset the router to factory default. To connect to your ISP, you'll need to enter your account details (and any other specific information) provided to you by your ISP. You will also have to set a name and password for the wifi section of your router (if it has wifi) if you don't want it to be freely accessible by everyone within wifi range.
