Mike, I wish I could remember the exact steps I took to get things working after my 8.1 upgrade. I also don't remember the specific symptom I experienced when trying to connect to the remote gateway - it may have been a negotiation timeout, but it also could have been an error related to the virtual adapter.
In any case, here are the steps I would take, if the problem happened to me again, and a simple uninstall/reboot/reinstall of the Shrew client didn't work: - uninstall Shrew client - remove any leftover traces of Shrew (program files / programdata / registry) - remove any hidden non-present networking devices from device manager - check that no Shrew filter drivers exist on the physical network interfaces; if so, remove them - perform a 'netsh int tcp reset' and 'netsh winsock reset' from an administrative command prompt to "reset" the networking - reboot and confirm all networking is functional - install Shrew client "fresh" - hope for the best!

Since XP it works fine, also at last with W8-64. But since upgrading to 8.1 64 bit no connection works. The access-manager starts as usuall, connections regarsless if with XAUTH or not, but always with PSK, don't work. After "Bringing up tunnel ..." a timeout occurs negotiation timeout occurs tunnel diabled detached from key daemon Some of the target gateways are reachable over ISDN. There I can see, that no communication is receiving from the VPN-Client. My Internetconnection is done over a Wireless Intel 135 and a bintec rs232bw gateway. If I use an other machine running W7-64 all works fine, as it would be before upgrading my machine to Windows 8.1. Is there a solution available?
