Hello,

I have been trying to set up a VPN for a client using Linksys RVS4000 routers at both ends but cant get the tunnels up. The both sites are using Xfinity for there ISP. I have configured the router for site 1 with the settings below. The router for Site 2 is configured with the same setting and pre-shared key. When I press Connect, page seems to refresh and status remains down. What am I missing or doing wrong?

I use several RV042 RV082 and WRV440Ns. Here is a pic from a working WRV440 in the hopes you see what you are missing
