<div><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"></FONT>Hi Kevin,</div>
<div>To your question about the intermittent pinging, yes, I can ping again (a 3rd, nth time) and sometimes get through to the 192.169.1.x address and sometimes not (can't reach the destination address).</div>
<div>However, I was able to connect via remote desktop to a PC on that remote network 192.168.1.100. So as you suggested, maybe the router treats the pings as a menace. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I agree with you that 0 bytes received is a red flag and changing the assigned IP subnet from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.2.x in the Netgear Mode Config was the key in solving. So yep, the problem was on the router end.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks Mike and Kevin for your great help!</div>

Hi Mike, the red flag that I see on the screenshot is on the SA tab,
where it shows that you've been connected for over a minute yet no data
has come through the tunnel from the gateway to your PC. I assume that
some of the 3.96 KB that you've sent are some pings which should
generate a response. That suggests the problem lies at the other end.
However, you appear to have made a change afterwards based on MikeW's
mail which has gotten you farther ahead, so maybe the zero returned
bytes is now moot.
