We have 5 static IP's from our ISP. I have two routers setup to use one IP each. Both networks can get to the internet and i can ping "yahoo.com". I can ping my Routers external address (67.65.x.x) from within that network. I cant ping the other router from my other network. Kind of weird. Any ideas?

Are the networks behind the routers on different subnets? If they are maybe that is your problem.
 
WanabeTek,

Nope the subnets are the same. I think i have figured it out. I was trying to use PING to check connectivity between the 2 routers, but if you have PPTP and IPSEC pass through enabled in the routers then the router filters ICMP packets (ping). that is why i couldnt PING. ;) Oh well now back to my VPN connectivity issue. Thanks for your response!.
