Hi Oscar,

This sounds like a problem between Shrew VPN client version 2.1.7 and 
Windows 7 on a laptop that also has the Microsoft WiFi Miniport adapter 
installed.  One of the symptoms of this problem is that Shrew often 
works when first installed but does not work after a reboot.

What version of Shrew Soft VPN client are you using on your Windows 7 
x64 machine?  If you are still using version 2.1.7, I would suggest you 
try using the 2.2.0-rc-2 version that is available under "HEAD 
DEVELOPMENT" on the Shrew downloads page.  It contains several fixes for 
Windows 7, including the WiFi Miniport conflict.
