Maybe a new firmware upgrade would help? Dunno... I expect that the Linksys tech would probably have mentioned that if it were available, but it wouldn't hurt to make sure you have verified that you're using the latest Linksys firmware... or aftermarket firmware, if available. I know that there are firmware updates available for some Linksys routers from 3rd-party vendors.

Even he is stumped right now. He walked me through the Port forwarding again. What is wiered, is I can connect to the other network using Sonic Wall VPN client software. What else is wiered is that I can connect to the VNC using Netgear router with no port forwarding set up. It is like Linksys is sending something in the Packets that VNC is not excepting. Just a thought. dean __________________________________________________ Dean Richardson SCOPE Management Solutions, LTD.

I recommend double-checking that you're passing port 5900 to the machine to which you wish to connect using VNC. It sounds like you may not have port-forwarding configured correctly on the Linksys router. -----Original Message----- From: Dean Richardson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 9:40 AM To: 'John Aldrich'; [email protected] Subject: RE: Linksys WRV54G I will check with Linksys on this. I have attempted the VNC with a wired connection and still yield the same results.

Are you attemtping to use a wireless connection on the router? There is anecdotal evidence that, for whatever reason, wireless routers don't seem to pass the connection over the wireless connection, only over the wired connection. This is, of course, a generalization, and I will gladly submit to correction by anyone know knows better. Also, some wireless routers may work better than others. I suggest you check with Linksys and see if there is any way to permit VNC to connect via wireless. -----Original Message----- From: Dean Richardson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 8:50 AM To: 'John Aldrich'; [email protected] Subject: RE: Linksys WRV54G John, I appreciate the link. Great knowledge base. But, I am not sure you understand my setup. I currently have the Linksys WRV54G router on my network. I am connecting to an outside network utilizing Sonic's VPN client. The connection is successful. When I attempt to connect to the other network with VNC I am getting the 10060 timed out error. I swaped my router with a netgear router and the VNC worked fine. There is something on my router that is causing this error. dean -----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 7:44 AM To: 'Dean Richardson'; [email protected] Subject: RE: Linksys WRV54G http://www.portforward.com is your friend. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dean Richardson Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 8:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Linksys WRV54G I have the below setup. I am attempting to connect to a customer's network through a VPN connection. I can make the Sonic Global VPN connection from my PC to their Sonic wall through my Linksys router. When I attempt to connect with the VNC I am getting the 10060 time out error. I brought my Netgear router from home and connected it and was able to make both the VPN connection and VNC connection. So I know it has to do with the Linksys Router. Please, assist.
