New Quantum G-1100 have a VPN server?
Does the new Quantum G-1100 have a VPN server? Trying to decide how to reconfigure my network to ditch the actiontec router.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Now that I know what you meant, I'll add that VPN server isn't something most people are looking for. I'd call it a fairly advanced feature. The G1100 is not targeted at super users. It is a very good, general purpose device for the majority of FiOS users. I woudn't call it "limited," just mainstream.
At $199, I do think it's overpriced as there are plenty of other routers at that price or below with more features. Verizon sometimes discounts it with certain bundles and/or speed tiers. They've had it on sale in the past. At lower prices or even free, it's a decent box for most people.
Since you're a super user, you probably don't want to bother with the Quantum. Stick with an Actiontec and put your router behind it. There's a good FAQ over on DSL Reports that describes the different ways to use a non-Verizon router and the trade-offs. If you don't have TV, you can simply switch your ONT to Ethernet WAN and then plug your router in (be sure to release your WAN IP before removing the Verizon router, or you'll have to wait two hours for it's lease to expire).

RRAS - VPN Server and Client have same subnet
Hello,
We have a VPN server setup in RRAS on our 2008 R2 server. The VPN works fine. Clients can connect and get to resources on our server fine.
The issue is that one client has a subnet of 192.168.1.0/24 and the subnet our server uses is also 192.168.1.0/24.
When the client connects, he can get to resources on our server. However, he needs to be able to get to an IP address of 192.168.1.4 using Remote Desktop that is on his local network. He also needs to get on IP 192.168.1.3 via Remote Desktop on the remote
network.
Is there a way we can accomplish this without changing subnets?For anyone else who needs an answer to this, this is the batch file I created using these links:

Hello. I have windows xp. When using Firefox as my home page, I get awful screen interference of lines verticle and horizontal. When I switch to Internet Explorer I don't get them. I want to keep Firefox as server.
Here is something that you can try:
# Click on Tools and then click Options.
# Select the Advanced panel
# Select the General tab
# Uncheck Use hardware acceleration where available.
# Click File and then click Exit.
# Start Firefox normally.
Once you have followed those steps, you'll want to follow these as well and see if the lines are gone.
Click the Help menu and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
Let me know if this has eliminated the problem. -
I have an iPad 1 and have a profile set up with Lotus Notes for work email. As I travel around the world I want to install a VPN ( my companies uses a VPN but it is only for work) so I can visit blocked sites. When I install the VPN it want to change the profile. Can I have more than one profile on the iPad or will the VPN overwrite the Lotus Notes profile?
maxYes, you can have more than one profile installed.

VPN Server with two router local network
I just got a Mac Mini Server 2011 to set up as a home server. One of the main features I want to use is a VPN so I can access my files on my local network when I'm away from home. I live in Japan and I have a Japanese optical connection to the internet that runs through two boxes before I can use it in any form: some sort of modem, and a "gateway" which I literally just found out is also acting as a router and serving DHCP addresses. In addition, I have a 2TB Time Capsule that, until just recently, I had been using in the "Share a Public IP" mode because I didn't realize the gateway was also issuing DHCP addresses. I cannot simply plug my TC into the modem in place of the gateway - both are required to access the internet.
Until today I had both routers using DHCP on the local networks they each created. Under that environment, I had finally configured Lion Server to file share (easy), manage network accounts (moderate), and serve Profile Manager (difficult). But despite my best efforts at mapping the ports on the Time Capsule, I just couldn't get the ports open using tools like canyouseeme.org, so the VPN was a no-go. That's when I realized the gateway could be a router too, so with some creative google searches, and extensive use of google translate, I was able to figure out how to open ports on the gateway. It does it pretty differently from the Time Capsule and other routers I've seen. It asks you define the host on the LAN (what i assume to be the target IP), the protocol (TCP vs. UDP), and then a range of ports for it to open. I plugged in the IP of the Time Capsule, opened all the UDP ports (since it was an option to just open all, and I figured 1) the TC would still protect my network and 2) it would just be a test), but I still couldn't see the ports as being open.
So then I got desperate, and I switched the TC back to Bridge Mode, reconfigured the Server and my MBP (my client Mac) to the new IP addresses being served by the Japanese gateway, and tried again. I think I reconfigured the DNS settings in Server Admin properly to account for the change in IP, and then updated the services in Server.app, but now I can't even get to my server homepage (the apple placeholder page) using either its IP or its .private domain, and to make matters worse, I STILL can't seem to get the ports open (yes, I changed the port mapping to send it directly to the server IP as the target after the change).
To add insult to injury, the wired ethernet connection I had been running from my TC to the MM Server is now reporting a cable unplugged (it's not), even when I plug it directly into the gateway, though I am able to connect wirelessly.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Why can't I get these ports open? (By the way, I called my ISP and they said they aren't blocking any of the ones I'd want to use for VPN.)
What is the *better* set up - using the TC as a second LAN, serving its own DHCP addresses, or using it in Bridge mode?
Why did these changes sever my wired connection?
I was getting even more problems (like loss of internet connectivity on all devices) using the TC in bridge mode, so I decided to go back to the dual network setup.Hello Eric,
As I mentioned above.
For external Internet access, I would create a Generation
1 VM
and use 2 Legacy Network Adapters for
the Interfaces . Connect it to the External and Internal network, and then install VM Linux IPFire (How
to install) and
configure IPFire with RED and GREEN interface.
You don't need router or any firewall.
I have the same set-up that you are trying to do in your lab and it's working great.
All my VMs / computers on the LAN have their gateway the Linux VM.
Hope this help.

Win 8.1 running HyperV as VPN server
Hello,
I have a PC running WIN 8.1, I'm running HyperV on it (for win8phone development)
On this PC, I want to set up a VPN server. When I set up incoming connection, it says, that there's no interface for incoming connections. What shall I do so?Hi,
As Microsoft suggest, you need add two virtual NIC, then attache the NIC to the different vSwitch, one vNIC for the internal another one for the external.

I have a VPN clients which can connect to the VPN server and communicate each other. I want to connect dedicated server to port FE 0/1 and all VPN clients to be able to see and communicate with the server. How I can connect the two networks?Ideally, VPN connectivity is tested from devices behind the endpoint devices that do the encryption, yet many users test VPN connectivity with the ping command on the devices that do the encryption. While the ping generally works for this purpose, it is important to source your ping from the correct interface. If the ping is sourced incorrectly, it can appear that the VPN connection has failed when it really works. If ping works continuously then the problem can be that the xauth times out. Increase the timeout value for AAA server in order to resolve this issue.

Solaris 10 VPN server/gateway setup
Hi all,
I have a V20z running Solaris 10 at home, and I would like to set it up as a VPN server. The Solaris 10 is behind a router with a reserved private IP assigned by DHCP and port forwarding set up for only SSH at the moment. The router has a static external IP.
I'm not exactly sure what the terms are for what I'm trying to do, but this is basically it:
When I am out of town or overseas, I want to be able to connect from my laptop running OS X or Linux to my Solaris 10 server at home, and have the S10 server act as a proxy(?) (gateway?) for all the traffic from my laptop; for example, if I was in a place where nytimes.com was blocked and wanted to be able to browse from my laptop by having the Solaris 10 server proxy (transparently) my requests and forward the responses back to me. I hope I'm explaining this ok...
I have searched a lot online for how to do this, and I have found a lot of info, but nothing that really ties it all together. I'm pretty comfortable working in the shell and doing config stuff, but it would be a huge help if anyone could explain all the pieces I need to snap together to get this working.
These are my questions:
1. What is what I have described called? Just "VPN" or "VPN router," or "VPN gateway"?
2. What software do I need on my Solaris 10 server to do this?
A lot of what I read pointed me to OpenVPN, but I am not clear if OpenVPN alone would enable me to use the public web via the VPN.
If not, then what would I need to have on the server to enable incoming requests over the VPN connection to be rerouted to the public internet?
3. I'm sure I can figure this out if I can just get the server VPN working, but if anyone happens to know, I'd appreciate it:
Built into OS X Networking Prefs I have the ability to add a VPN interface of either of these 2 types:
"PPTP"
"L2TP over IPsec"
From what I have read so far, it seems like IPsec is likely the only reasonable choice, but the option of "L2TP over IPsec" confuses me since I haven't read that they are required to be used together.
Will this option work for connecting to my Solaris VPN server or will I need a 3rd-party app?
Any guidance would be a tremendous help.
Thanks guys!
JamieMobile IP???
Assuming that you had the right security in place you could have the "Home" box export it's display back to the "Roving" box and then just run a web browser over X. Something like SSH with X forwarding.

Installing a VPN Server in Mac OS X
Has anyone tried to install a VPN server successfully in mac os x?
I was able to get webmin installed successfully, and I know on my linux distros webmin automatically detects if a VPN server is installed (such as poptop) or at least if the option is there, but in mac os x (not the server version) there is nothing listed.
Anyone know of any other VPN servers that could be installed in mac os x, or even anything for BSD that could be compiled from source?I run the server on PowerPC and use clients on both PowerPC and Intel. Admittedly, my wife has run off the the MBP so my use on the Intel is limited these days.
If you want to route onto the network, you'll have to create routes after the TUN/TAP interface is up. The OS X FAQs on OpenVPN detail various ways to do this.

# use the subdirectory "ccd" for client-specific
# configuration files (see man page for more info).
# EXAMPLE: Suppose the client
# having the certificate common name "Thelonious"
# also has a small subnet behind his connecting
# machine, such as 192.168.40.128/255.255.255.248.
# First, uncomment out these lines:
;client-config-dir ccd

# This will allow Thelonious' private subnet to
# access the VPN. This example will only work

Newbie in need assistance configuring iChat server (LDAP).
I needs some assistance in setting up iChat server for our office. I running LDAP and I have the iChat server basics setup and it is working, however my boss wants to set up different domains in iChat for the various departments (i. e. Accounting, Sales, production, etc.). These will not be accessed outside of the building. He states I need to configure additional search bases. It is at this point I am drawing a blank.
Hi Paul,
An intersetng one.
James Weston may be able to post more on this.
iChat can Chat to other Macs using the Bonjour option
(Click the Apple/Command key + 2 together)
Bonjour has to be enabled in the Account section of iChat Preferences.
All computers have to be in the same subnet
This is going to be the sticking point.
Lets say you have one routing device for your local net and it issues all computers and devices with IP Addresses in the range 192.168.1.xxx then all the computers on on the same Subnet as there is only one LAN.
If you have subsequent routers that change the IP addresses to somethng like 192.168.1.xxx for sales and 192.168.2.xxx fo accounts etc, then you will have subnets. Computers in 192.168.1.xxx will only see other Bonjour/iChat computers in that group and the same for 192.168.2.xxx but not from group to group.
To show up in the Bonjour window iChat takes the Address Book Me card entry of the MAc user account and broadcasts it to the other computers.
This would give you an option of using this method to pass out information where people were. The revelant "Sales" or "Accuounts" could be added to their Real Names.
(Bonjour would have problems if several computers were changed to read just Sales as the Address Book name).
An alternative would be to set up a VPN and have all computers on the same network for Bonjour independent of any of network they were on.
James knows more about networks than I do and may have other information that may help.

Can I setup my Time Capule 2TB as a VPN server so I can connect to my network from a remote (out-of-state) location or is there another way?
There is no vpn server in the TC so no you cannot use it that way.
If you want to use vpn .. buy a vpn endpoint modem or modem router or router depending on your broadband. Bridge the TC so it is simply a part of the network and all routing functions are handled by the vpn router.
If the TC is directly facing the internet.. ie you get the public IP on the wan interface.. you can connect by checking the remote access and using a decent password. Security is no where near as good as vpn but for occasional connection is probably OK. You can only use AFP protocol. So this must be done from a Mac computer. Just do a google search.. lots of sites.. lots of threads.
If the TC is not getting public IP then you can port forward AFP to the TC.. that is the only protocol still.. SMB is blocked by all ISP as too dangerous as half the computers in the world would be exposed.
There is a final issue.. you need either a static public ip or dynamic dns service. The TC does not have a dyndns client.. mobileme used to provide that service but is being discontinued. Cloud is now the way.. if you need a dyndns service read how to set this up..
http://dyn.com/support/airport-time-capsule-with-dynamic-dns/
You need a personal domain for this to work.. note also the experimental aspect to it.
IMHO vpn with a vpn router is the way to go. All vpn routers have some dyndns client services. -
Forwarding L2TP to an internal Windows 2008 R2 VPN server behind RV042
Hi all,
we have a Cisco RV042 router and we wanted to use a Win 2k8 R2 VPN server that is located behind it to handle L2TP VPN connections.
I have forwarded Ports 500 and 4500 UDP and Port 1701 TCP and UDP to the VPN server, but I cannot establish a connection from my Windows 7 machine. I'm getting error 809 after a timeout.
It is working from the iPhone and the Mac without problems.
I have already set the parameter "AssumeUDPEncapsulationContextOnSendRule" to 2 in the registry of both the client and the server but with no effect.
My guess is that I cannot forward "IP Protocol 50" from the RV042 and that the iPhone VPN does not care about that but the Windows VPN does and so it's not working. Or is it possible that the active PPTP server on the RV042 could interfere here? It should be using different ports though.
Any idea how I could make this setup work?
Thanks
Regards,
MichaelThis router is now supported on the Cisco forums since the sale of Linksys to Belkin. I had issues with L2TP with a different router. I just switched to PPTP instead. I've found PPTP much more forgiving between devices.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

How to setup vpn-server in Mountain Lion 10.8.3?
Before I updated my mac mini server to 10.8.3 I used Server Admin to setup a vpn server. After the update Server Admin isn't supported anymore and my vpn settings are gone. Now i want to setup the server again, but have no clue what settings to enter where.
I suppose it starts with adding two vpn-interfaces: PPTP and LT2P.
But how further? I can't find a tutorial or manual.I do now :-)
And many thank, that's the application I was looking for. My vpn is back online. Well, the mac-part. I still can't connect with a Win7 system. Connecting to a vpn-server of another company works fine, so it's something in the configuration of de Mini Server.
The error code is 629.
Hopefully someone can help me with this part too? -
Can't connect to my VPN server from the WAN addres...
I've setup a PPTP VPN server on a Raspberry Pi, so that I can connect to it when out and about and avoid having my android internet use sniffed by random public wi-fi hotspots.
It seems to be working as I setup a Windows 7 connection to it using the LAN address (192.168.1.85) and that connected fine but I can't get it to work through the BT HH3 via the WAN address. I've forwarded port 1723 to 192.168.1.85 and tried disabling the firewall, enabling port clamping and putting the RPi in the DMZ, none of which made any difference.
Is anyone able to help please?Did some testing from my parents house yesterday and whilst connected to their router (Virgin Media) and/or a local BTWiFi hotspot (I can't honestly remember if I tried both or if I only tested with one or the other), I was able to connect to the VPN Server from my phone.
I can also connect from my home PC using Putty to the VPN Server on SSH (port 22) with that forwarded in the router using the WAN address, so NAT travesal doesn't seem to be an issue.
Yet I still can't connect to the VPN Server from home, whether connected to my HH3 or a local BTWiFI-with-FON hotspot, using the WAN address, only the LAN address, which doesn't make any sense to me.
I don't think it's relevant to this problem but I want to ask a question about the router firewall as the description for Default (which is what I have enabled) says "Allow all outgoing connections and block all unsolicited incoming traffic. Games and application sharing is allowed." but it doesn't appear to block unsolicited incoming traffic as otherwise I don't think I'd have been able to connect to the VPN Server from my parent's house, or on SSH from my PC using the WAN address. So is the description incorrect?
