VPN to work with Nortel Client Fails

Posts: 2 · New Forum Member Joined: Jan 25, 2007 Posts: 2

I have searched all the forums and came close but no cigar on this issue.

My setup;
Vonage IP8100-2
Time Warner Cable Road Runner Service
Netgear WGR614 v6 wireless router
VPN using Nortel for access to work LAN

Wiring and connections as follows;
From Cable modem to netgear router
netgear router to ip8100-2 and main computer

Laptop on wireless

Problem:
When I try to VPN to work, I can not get a connection unless I disconnect the IP8100-2 from the network. It just hangs. I disconnect and it connects right away.

I tried moving the ip8100 before the router, same result.

Any where I can look and learn or suggestions?

Searching through past posts leads me to believe there might be a conflict on port 10000. You may want to try specifically forwarding port 10000 in your router to your PC and see if that helps and if your IP8100 still works.
