[vpn-help] VPN Tunnel won't pass traffic

[Scott Woodbridge]

*Problem*:
After initial installation and configuration of the VPN tunnel, Shrew Soft
successfully connects and passes traffic to/from network devices.  The
tunnel connects rapidly.

After closing/disconnecting the tunnel, subsequent connections succeed, but
slowly.  After the tunnel is enabled, traffic will no longer pass.
Quitting the Shrew Soft client, rebooting the PC, have no effect.


*Workaround:*
The only workaround discovered so far is to perform the following steps in
sequence:
1) Open Network and Sharing Center in the Control panel.
2) Right click on the LAN connection, select 'properties', deselect the
"Shrew Soft Lightweight Filter", click 'ok' to save.
3) Right click on the LAN Connection, select 'disable'.
4) Right click on the LAN Connection, select 'enable'
5) Right click on the LAN connection, select 'properties', select the
"Shrew Soft Lightweight Filter", click 'ok' to save.


*Environment*:
Shrew Soft VPN Client (Std) 2.2.2
Windows 7 SP1
Dell OptiPlex 3010
Realtek PCIe GBE (Driver 5.810.1218.2012)
Cisco SA500


Any suggestions would be appreciated.
