I'm trying to setup a VPN that will allow me to connect in to my home
network (with a Netgear DG834Gv4 facing the internet) from a Windows 7 laptop.
Can anyone provide a cookbook for setting the Netgear VPN settings
and ShrewSoft VPN client that would enable the two to connect? I've
been tearing my hair trying all sorts of combinations, but can't get
anything to work. The VPN trace on the Win 7 laptop shows three
attempts to send phase1 packets before it hits "resend limit exceeded
for phase1 exchange" and aborts.
I am a computer programmer with 30 years experience and lots of
networking experience, but I can't figure this one out!
Thanks,
Howard
