[vpn-help] Internet connection keeps dropping after I connect to Shrew client 2.1.7

[Katie Kieffer]

Hello,

I have Windows 7 64-bit OS installed on my home computer.  I installed the
2.1.7 Shrew client in order to VPN into my work computer, however everytime
I connect, I authenticate successfully through my work-administered PCF
file, and I am able to remote into my work computer for about 5 minutes,
then I will lose my network connection entirely.  It will attempt to
reconnect and will successfully sometimes, but then it never fails to
disconnect my internet connection about 5 minutes later.  I am using a
Linksys/Cisco CM 100 cable modem with Comcast as my ISP.  I called Comcast
to see if there was something they had to unblock on their end to make this
work, but they informed me that there was nothing they could do.  I don't
know who else to turn to - I installed the client using all default settings
but I have to get this working in order to work from home.  If you need
additional information, please let me know.

Many thanks in advance,

Katie
