[vpn-help] VPN not passing traffic using Shrew Client

[mikelupo at aol.com]

Hi Kevin,
To your question about the intermittent pinging, yes, I can ping again (a 3rd, nth time) and sometimes get through to the 192.169.1.x address and sometimes not (can't reach the destination address).
However, I was able to connect via remote desktop to a PC on that remote network 192.168.1.100. So as you suggested, maybe the router treats the pings as a menace. 

I agree with you that 0 bytes received is a red flag and changing the assigned IP subnet from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.2.x in the Netgear Mode Config was the key in solving. So yep, the problem was on the router end.

Thanks Mike and Kevin for your great help!
Mike

 The 2.1.6 Beta did not solve the issue. 
 
 FYI:. I also have the Netgear VPN client on a different PC going
 through my same home network. It connects fine and I can communicate
Hi Mike, the red flag that I see on the screenshot is on the SA tab,
here it shows that you've been connected for over a minute yet no data
as come through the tunnel from the gateway to your PC.  I assume that
ome of the 3.96 KB that you've sent are some pings which should
enerate a response.  That suggests the problem lies at the other end.
However, you appear to have made a change afterwards based on MikeW's
ail which has gotten you farther ahead, so maybe the zero returned
ytes is now moot.
