You should have a setting on your router that allows VPN Passthrough. If not you must flash or replace your router.
I've got a D-Link Wireless N X-Treme, it's fast as hell, I just need to solve the line drop problem I'm having. I may have pulled the wrong grade cable (I pulled CAT 3, I probably should've pulled CAT 5e) -- Scott Stewart ColdFusion Developer SSTWebworks 4405 Oakshyre Way Raleigh, NC. 27616 (919) 874-6229 (home) (703) 220-2835 (cell) -----Original Message----- From: C. Hatton Humphrey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2008 9:05 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Router Suggestions I've got two routers available. Right now I have the following set up: Verizon DSL | | Belkin F5D7230-4 (DHCP, WiFi, etc) | |-- Windows Server (IIS et al) |-- Wireless Network | |- Desktop | \- Laptop | SMC 7004ABR (Acting as a switch, DHCP and routing disabled) | \- Desktop According to the DD-WRT site the Belkin can be flashed but I'm hesitant to do it because if I mess something up I've lost my only wireless access point. At this point though I truly think that Verizon's techs are clueless and they are blocking incoming VPN traffic.
