[vpn-help] What next after tunnel enabled?

Are the other nodes on the same LAN subnet as the router?  Do those other nodes reply to echo requests?  Have you added those subnets to the Policy tab in the Shrew client?

The virtual adapter not having a default gateway is normal, as policy defines which networks are tunneled.

Please let me know what more specific questions I should ask?  Or point me to the appropriate what next document.

I have installed shrew on Windows XP.  I have been able to connect to a cisco RV042 router using shrew over a smartphone hotspot connection.  I have been able to ping the router.

However, I have not been able to connect to any other node in the network.  What steps am I missing?

I configured the router and client using "https://www.shrew.net/support/Howto_Linksys".

The router now has two Groups, one remote client is pnj_network.com and the other is shrew.net.  Otherwise, the configuration is as similar as I can make them.  The client would not allow me to specify a DNS suffix of pnj_network, thus I used shrew.net.

ipconfig on my XP machine lists no entry for the Default Gateway.
