[vpn-help] Shrewsoft and Watchguard

Hello all,

I am using Shrewsoft 2.1.7 to connect to a very old and outdated Watchguard Firewall; running WatchGuard SOHO 6 TC.  I am able to connect to the WG successfully and from what I can tell, successfully establish phase 1 and phase 2 authentications.  All works fine for about 10-15 minutes, then I can no longer pass traffic.  Shrewsoft still says the tunnel is enabled, but no pings are returned.  I have the WatchGuard VPN software working on a Windows XP machine without issue and that stays connected all the time, however I can't get WatchGuard and Shrewsoft to work together.  I have attached some logs.  I have changed the external ip to 2.2.2.2 in the log files.  The local site has a 192.168.1.0 network and the remote site has a 192.168.7.0 network.

I did a running ping and pings stop getting replies at the 22:37:39.482 mark in the log files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Giuseppe
