Access Connection and CP_SecuRemoteSecureClient_NGX_R60_HFA3

Hi,
I am having troubles with the Lenovo Access Connections 5 and the Checkpoint RemoteSecureClient for establishing VPN connections.
The VPN tunnel will setup when using LAN or WLAN. I have also installed the Vodafone dashboard wich will allow VPN connections. But when i use the access connection the VPN gate way cant be reached. Anything else works with vpn. I can connect to the ISP and i get an IP assigned. Surfing works.
I hace noticed the checkpox VPN in the Access Connections. I have enabled it and selected my vpn software. Still not working. Disabaled the firewall. Nothing.
I have noticed that the vodafone dashboard creates a Dail-Up entry while AC 5 just enabled the adaptor device.
Maybesome one has experience with this problem.

Hi,
try to open Access Connection and Edit your profile, that you are using for this VPN connection.
Go to Additional Settings tab and select the "Settings" , that is next to Override TCP/IP and DNS sufix.
Make sure, that you configure these settings correctly.
Once this is done, it should work just fine.
Cheers

Access Connections and Tools won't install properly

I have followed advice uninstalled the wireless driver, access connections, hotkey, power manager. . Reinstalled all ( latest versions) except access connection. Wireless connections work correctly and all hot keys function appropriately ( including Fn +F5 ). Then I let TVSU download Access connections. An icon is placed in the task tray. Clicking on it nothing happens. Also none of the hot keys work including the blue ThinkVantage key. Once I uninstall Access connection I am back in business with the wireless connection and the hot keys working. ( for all these installs I turned off the Microsoft virus scanner and the firewall).
Have similar problem with ThinkVantage tools in that I get the Icon in the task tray and then the program freezes. No problem in reinstalling PC doctor5

Hi dulverton,
I find lenovo drivers and software rather eccentric; since they need to be installed in a particular order to work properly.
First uninstall your wireless driver and access connections, thereafter reboot your system. Then install wireless driver first, again reboot, subsequently install access connections, reboot again.
Further this is the order in which the following drivers must be installed for each of them to function desirably:-
1) Lenovo PM driver
2) Lenovo System Interface Driver
3) Hotkey driver
4) Wireless driver software [reboot]
5) Access Connections [reboot]
Hope it helps.

Access Connections and Group Policy generated network profiles

Hello,
We are in the middle of rolling out 3500 T400 machines and are having fits with Access Connections 5.02. We have a default in-house Preferred Wireless Network Profile that is created on each machine via Group Policy. This works fine with AC and everything does what is supposed to do when our users are in our buildings. When our users go offsite, we have nothing but fits with AC and trying to set up any other WAN connections.
If users set up a new network connection, we are asking them to set it up thru AC. We have had them try using both the "Use Windows to Configure Wireless Network" as well as "IEEE 802.1X Authentication". Once the network connection is set up, for some, the wireless will work for a short period (a week or so) and then will no longer detect network connections. The user nor the client site has made any changes to the wireless configuration.
Others will have a stable connection wirelessly until they connect over VPN – VPN will drop in a few minutes after connection. They can then sometimes reconnect after a reboot; but the instability is a constant problem.
It seems to me that the problem could all be traced back to GP enforcement, which occurs every 8 hours when connected to our network. If a user is offline for several days, then connects up to check email or transfer time or whatever, then they are kicked off. If a user connects via VPN, they are kicked off within minutes - again potentially traceable to GP enforcement.
Has anyone else dealt with this scenario of Preferred Wireless Network policies and Access Connections?
Thanks!

Try going back to AC 4.52, which solved the problems i was having with AC5.02 (freezes, BSOD, loss of wireless connections when coming out of standby, GUI problems) on Vista Home Premium. Scroll down for prevous versions of AC5.02 here:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-67283
I do not use a VPN system so AC4.52 may not help your 3500 Thinkpads.
Lenovo (Mark_Lenovo) knows there are problems with AC5.02 for the last three (or more ) months and have stated that AC 5.1 will solve the problems, but it has not been released as far as I know. There are many threads on AC5.02 on this forum and also on thinkpads.com
the Lenovo Blog site also has an update on AC5.02 ;under "Design Matters" on how they selected the graphics for wireless connections - the responses there offer some suggestions to fix the problems.

T500: Access Connections and windows wifi management issue PostPosted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 2:31 pm

Hello all,
This is my very first post here so please beare with me.
My T500:
Product: ThinkPad T500 2056-AK5
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (but same problem on Ultimate x64)
Original description: Based 2056-4RG: T9400(2.53GHz), 3GB RAM, 160GB 7200rpm HD, 15.4in 1680x1050 LCD, 256MB ATI Radeon HD3650, CDRW/DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn wireless, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ether, UltraNav, Sec Chip, FPR, 9c Li-Ion, WinVista Business 32
The wifi NIC is Intel 5100 AGN, the gigabit is 82567LM. I bought also an Ericsson F3507g Mobile Broadband modem. All are working as supposed.
The win7 is freshly installed from recovery dvd's, all updates, both Lenovo and Micro$oft are up to date.
The problem: Access connections seems to be "behind" the automated wifi management of windows 7. I have two, three profiles saved for may home wifi network, my office wifi network and so on. My home network has settings like 192.168.7.xx, no encryption, only MAC registration, the office network has 192.168.4.xx, encryption WPA, therefore a switch is needed everyday between these.
The problem is that AC doesn't do that, eventually doesn't even switch between locations at all. In AC->Tools location switching is properly set up
The T500 connects let say at home, then when I starts in the office it connects to the office network but still using my home IP (192.168.7.xx) even if I saved in the profiles different IP numbers for both location. I have tried stopping the windows wifi connection service but then AC stop either.
This seems to me like windows try and force reconnect to the new network with the old settings, even before AC could interfere with its settings saved in profiles.
Only 2 things I can do:
1. in windows' wireless network and sharing center I choose to start manually these networks, then start them manually from AC;
2. Stop the network as connected automatically by windows (with wrong IP settings) then restart it from AC;
Both these are frustrating because my good old T60 running winXP did this automatically, without my inference.
Could anyone help me out of these, please?

I had similar problems with my T400. AC would refuse to even show my access point most of the time. I finally gave up and uninstalled AC. The Windows 7 wifi management works just fine, but no profiles
Others on this forum smarter than me insist that AC works with Windows 7, just not for me. It worked perfectly when running XP on this T and on my T61.
If you dump AC, do the basic wifi functions work for you?

Access Connections and 2 users

I run Access Connections 4.42 as default for configuring network access on a T61with XP SP2. When two users are logged in Access Connections fails with: Access Connections is being used by another user... If I click ok,then I'm unable to set any network settings. When I log out second user it takes some minutes because some programs won't stop: The Message appears LPManager has no reaction and then ACWLIconWnd has no reaction.. If I abort immeadiatly by task manager log out proceeds. Then log in to the first user will crash function of ThinkVantage key and you cant start any Lenovo ThinkVantage Programs (Access Connections too). To get proper function you need to reboot.
Is there any way to make Access Connections working with two users like windows XP manage network connections when several user are loged (Registry settings...)?
Otherwise how can I stop running Access Connections temporaly when working with two users?
Is there any program with quite similar functions for maniging network profiles....?

Access Connections and WLAN

Access Connections attempts to connect to my secured home network but fails. Yet I can still connect to the network, connect to Skype, and access webpages through Chrome. Windows Network and Sharing Center tells me that I am connected to the internet through my home network yet Access Connections has a big red X over the wireless connection, telling me I cannot connect to the network.

You can just un-install it. I did on a recent Thinkpad,
and my connections were fine afterwards.
Or explore the settings of the utility, maybe there is
something you can change to fine tune it?

Access Connections fails to launch - "has encountered a problem and needs to close..."

I have an R61 with XP, SP3 installed. The underlying functionality of Access Connections appears to be working properly (I have access to both Ethernet and wireless using profiles previously established), but when I attempt to launch Access Connections (from system tray icon, Programs, etc.) I get the error message, "Access Connections has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience," and the option to send or not send an error report to Microsoft. This makes it impossible to create or edit location profiles. I first encountered this error several months ago with AC version 5.33 (might have also seen it under 5.3). Subsequently I have upgraded to version 5.50 and have the same problem. Today I uninstalled AC, restared, reinstalled ver 5.5 (from a fresh download), and restarted. I still encountering the problem.
Additional information: Norton Internet Security (2010) is installed. Microsoft and ThinkVantage patches are up to date.
Please recommend "next steps" in troubleshooting or a way to resolve this issue.
Thanks

Hmmm... could be a corrupt profile.
Try this.
1. Uninstall Access Connections (but don't delete the profiles)
2. After the reboot, open REGEDIT.
3. In the left pane, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, then SOFTWARE, then Lenovo
4. Still in the left pane, right click on Access Connection and choose export
5. Assign an appropriate filename and click Save (I suggest somewhere on the Desktop).
6. Right click on Access Connections again and choose delete.
7. Open Windows Explorer and go to C:\Program Files\Thinkpad\ConnectUtilities directory.
8. Delete any files in this directory.
9. Reinstall Access Connections v5.50
10. Try and create a profile.
If you still get an error trying to create a profile, then something else is broken. Be sure you have .NET 3.5 SP1 (it may be under optional downloads in Windows Update).
If it works fine, then you have a bad profile. Unfortunately, there isn;t an easy way to figure out which one other than try and error of delete profiles and trying one at a time.
To restore your profiles.
1. Unistall Access Connections. Reboot.
2. Double click the saved .reg file on your Desktop and answer Yes to merge it into the registry.
3. Install Access Connections. Reboot.

ThinkVantage Access Connections and Limited User Account (LUA) on XP SP3

Is it really so that one has to be logged on with at least Power User privileges to get the Access Connections utility working properly with 3G/HSDPA? When logging on as a Limited User, the computer can find all the cell phone operators nearby but does not let to do a connect. But when logged on as a Power User, all problems go away.
I would not like to bump up my user privileges from Limited User to Power User, since all else seems to work fine with a Limited User Account. Any ideas about what is going wrong -- or did I just hit into a wall here?
The environment in question is Thinkpad X200 and XP SP3. Access Connections and the HSDPA driver are the latest ones I could find from the Lenovo driver download site (Access Connections v. 5.21, Ericsson HSDPA driver v. 1.0.1046.221).
Would there be any other way to use 3G connections than to use the Access Connections utility (without changing to another o/s)?

Hi Sami,
I just got stuck on the same problem as you and following is what I found in details fro ThinkVantage Access Connections version 5.30. Hope this helps.
Jakub
<Limited User>
A Limited user can create and apply only modem profiles. However, if
Administrator sets "Allow Windows users without administrator
privileges to create and apply location profiles" option in the
Global settings then the user can create and apply any kinds of
profiles in the system.
Also, a limited user cannot:
1. Edit setting for the Automatic Ethernet and Wireless location
profiles switching.
2. Edit Global settings.
3. Edit profiles created by another user in the system.
4. Renew or release IP in the Diagnostics panel.
5. Export profiles.
The limitations on Power user also apply on Limited user.

Text problems on X40 Access Connections and Power Manager

Recently, and possibly in conjunction with a recent Lenovo update, Access Connections and Power Manager (at the least, there may be other programs that have problems too, but I have not checked all) display all text as little boxes. The functionality is still there, but it is kind of hard to figure out what's what. I have PM 1.6.3 (just installed the latest), but not sure of version of Access Manager, as I can't see it.
I can email a screen shot if needed, but could not figure out how to put one in here. Any help would be most appreciated.

Access Connections Problems With Windows 7 and Microsoft Security Essentials

There appears to be a conflict with Access Connections and Microsoft Security Essentials which causes Microsoft Security Essentials to generate high page faults and high CPU usage, and prevents normal operation of Access Connections.
After fresh install and reboot Access Connections would not launch, and when cursor was moved to the taskbar, the cursor pointer changed to a spinning loop. Clicking on the Access Connections gadget did nothing. Looking at Task Manager, Microsoft Security Essentials program msmpeng.exe was experiencing 5000+ page faults per interval. Terminating msmpeng.exe immediately caused Access Connections to launch.
System configuration: Lenovo Thinkpad x200s with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 RTM (installed with a fresh install) with all current updates, and all updates from Leovo including Access Connections V 5,42 Build 6JC725WW,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here is a workaround to fix the issue
1) Launch MS Security Essentials
2) Click on the "settings" tab
3) Click on "Excluded files & Locations"
4) Click "Add"
5) browse and add the following exceptions
a) C:\Users\Public\Lenovo\Access connections
b) C:\Users\Public\Lenovo\Access connections\AccConnAdvanced.html
6) Click "Save Changes"
The issue is also resolved in AC 5.5 which is posted to the web

Can someone please test both solutions and let me know if the issue is resolved.

Access Connections 5.12 and Power Manager 2.41a continue to garble the screen

The newest versions of Access Connections and Power Manager continue to be soooooooo slowwwwwwww that when they start, they both leave a Not Responding screen in the background and the graphics in the foreground continue not to display properly. The big red circle is cut off at the top border and the Close buttons are fuzzy and not clear. The root problem is that both applications are exceedingly slow to load even on a super fast system.
These problems version after version after version after version have never been corrected.
I have drawn this to Lenovo's attention on numerous occassions before. This time is pretty much the last straw.
Does anybody at Lenovo listen? That was a rhetorical question.
These two applications appear to be permanently broken.
.... jdhurst

The same experience here. The only new ThinkVantage app that works acceptably and is worth of upgrade is only Fingerprint reader software. Power Manger and Access Connections are too slow and add nothing that important (as far as I am concerned) to be worth of trouble to update. So I stick to the older versions in those two cases.

Thinkpad T61 wireless access connection problem and heat problem

My laptop keeps heating up ALOT i've been using tpfancontrol to make my fan go really fast and to cool it down. Anyone have a clue what to do about that? It automatically sets itself to smart (fan control config). Also my access connections has been working really bad lately. It won't connect anywhere. When i press fn+f5 and click on the network i want to connect to it would show connection successful and say applying wireless settings with a x next to it. Anyone know what to do about this?! cause i installed and uninstalled and nothing is working =[. Newest access connections and updated wireless drivers. Wireless zero connection is working fine though.

Can't power on Wireless Radio Access Connections ver. 5.83 build 83C753WW

I had the wireless working just fine. I did a System Update and now I can't get the Wireless Radio to power on for the life of me.
I've tried many things. I read many many other problems that sound the same but they are working with older version of Access Connections and most of them are working with XP.
I'm working with Win7 64bit Professional on a Thinkpad L512. Windows has all the updates available. The only way I know of to turn on the radio is with <Function> F5. I see the 802.11 Wireless Radio in the Off state. I see the power button. When I select the power button nothing happens.
I have replaced the hard drive and loaded the recovery disks. Then the wireless works just fine. So I know it's not a hardware issue. When I put the original hard drive back in I can't get the radio to power on. I have removed and reinstalled a number of pieces of software in a specific order but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks,
Docfxit

look in device manager / network adapter to ensure the wireless card driver is working

Enable auto connection with Access Connections?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to make my T61 connect to my mobile broadband internet connection automatically when coming out of sleep and/or hibernate? Can it be done through Access Connections? I'm running the latest AC on Vista 64.

You can set Access Connections to connect to your WAN if none of the other wireless profiles are available.
Open Access Connections and in the upper right, switch from Basic to Advanced.
Go to the Tools tab and click on Location Switching.
The bottom check box can be set "When no other connections are available, connect through WAN or WiMax"
Set that and click Ok.

Access Connections not functioning/displaying correctly

I recently (today) reset my T410 to factory settings, and have been updating my software etc.
At first (after factory restore) Access Connections worked fine; however, I then ran Lenovo System Update, and now Access Connections doesnt "see" any networks, and doesnt read as connected even though I am currently connected.
I tried downloading the most recent version (g1c796ww.exe) and installing it, but this has not solved my problem.
The internet works fine, yet Access Connections doesnt seem to be doing anything.

So, I uninstalled Access Connections and reinstalled via Lenovo Update.
It now works, yet i could only innitially connect via "details" and not graphical... after which the graphical interface now reads the network as being there and connected (it took a while for it to show up)
I will update whether or not this "fix" sticks.
For those of you who are like "Why use Access Connections at all?",--I like the customizable profiles (performance vs power savings, proxy etc)
