Hey John, thx for dealing with my problem. I don't enter the vpn data
manually instead I'm using a pcf import to set up the tunnel. My
credentials are correct. What do you mean by adding that device to the
client? Thx Mirco

Have you added that device to the client and made sure your credentials
matched? Also, are you using the profile that you created using your
device, or are you going in and manually entering the settings for your
VPN. I know sometimes one simple mismatch can stop you from completing a
connection. I know in the past when it showed connected, but didn’t allow
me to access my software on the secure side had to do with a weak
connection and not having a stable VPN. So these are all things to
consider.****

Hi, I still have an issue in using my VPN connection. No matter what I
try, the tunnel is shown as connected but still I cannot use the vpn tunnel
but am connected to my local wlan net. What may go wrong here? What details
can I provide to clarify my problem?****
thank you for any hint,****

Hi,****
just set up a cisco VPN connection (via pcf import) with group PSK auth.
VPN connect shows "tunnel enabled" and I can see a new lan adapter being
set up having an ip address from my company net. Seems okay so far. ****
When I try to call a service (http) which is available within my company
net only, it get a time out. When I call a web site which normally is being
filtered out by our company firewall I get a connection. Therefore I think,
the tunnel is not working properly and/or I have a routing issue.****
Hi Mirco,
Are you using a very fast wlan connection? For instance wireless
standard 'N'? We have sometimes found that Windows Vista/7
automatically assigns a lower routing metric to fast networks (10Gb
ethernet, 802.11n WiFi) than to the Shrew tunnel, so all traffic
bypasses the tunnel by taking the preferred network.
To see if this is the case, connect to the VPN, then open a CMD prompt
and type 'route print'. This will display the routing table.
The column on the right, called Metric, is the one that shows the
preference of one route vs another. Lower values are better. So if you
see, for instance, that the 0.0.0.0 Destination route assigned to your
WiFi connection has a lower metric than your VPN tunnel, the traffic may
take the WiFi route instead of the tunnel.
