You don't mention versions of anything, but the ShrewSoft solution had problems 
at one point if there were more than one enabled adapter.

So...to test wireless, disable your wired adapter, reboot, and see if it'll 
connect.

If that doesn't work....then, I dunno. It's all black magic to me.

Subject: VPN problems

I am having problems with my Cisco VPN and my company laptop (Windows XP). I've 
tried the Cisco client, and I've tried the Shrewsoft VPN client. Neither one 
works, although the Cisco one said it was connected, I was unable to get past 
the firewall. The Shrew client won't even connect. It gets a timeout error. 
There is no firewall installed on the laptop. The same configuration works on 
my wife's XP box at home using the Cisco client, so I'm about 99.9999% sure 
it's not my account info.
Any ideas where to look? I don't know much about this stuff. I've got Vipre 
Enterprise Premium installed, but don't have the firewall portion active. 
Before anyone asks, yes, it *used* to work, but the last time I went and tried 
it (Tuesday) it just wouldn't work and I've been fighting to get it going since 
then. Heck, it doesn't even work from McDonald's, which has open wireless... 
and I've tried wired and wireless, neither works.

Thanks.
