[vpn-help] 2.2.2-release stopped working between reboots

Tue Feb 25 00:21:32 CST 2014

I'm running 2.2.2-release on Win 8.1 x64 and it ceased working between reboots and I can't get it to work again.

I tried updating my NIC drivers (Intel NIC) to the latest version, tried resetting the TCP/IP stack (netsh int ip reset), no go.

I uninstalled and re-installed every version of the VPN client from 2.2.0 to 2.2.2.

The error message I'm getting in the VPN Access Manager is

Any ideas?
