Hello,
Linksys tech support has not found an answer for me yet so I thought I would try here also.

I have a Linksys RV082 router with QuickVPN enabled.
I have a Microsoft 2003 OWA server on my LAN.
Both the Linksys QuickVPN client and my SSL OWA use port 443.
If I forward port 443 to my server on my LAN, then the OWA website access works fine but my QuickVPN clients can't connect.

If I turn off the port 443 forwarding, then my QuickVPN clients connect fine but then I can't coonet to my website.

It appears I can't have it both ways!

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.
 
No, I did not. I talked with two different techs at Linksys, one on the regular support line, one on the VAR support line. Both said they would elevate the issue, do some reasearch, then get back to me. They never did. I have not pursued it since. Perhaps if you have time, you can pick up the ball and try to get it moving again. Please post here if you have any luck.

Thanx

 
If you have more than 1 WAN IP address, you can get around this by using one for quickVPN connections & the other for the SSL OWA. But, if you only have 1 public IP, I suspect you have to modify one of those pieces of software.
 
smah, thanks for the info I will continue to pursue and post here if I find a solution or any other work arounds.
 
I haven't tested it, but the new QuickVPN client is supposed to resolve this problem. See thread463-1176696

QuickVPN (1.0.3.8)in conjunction with the new router firmware is supposed to resolve the 443 conflict, but it does not. That confirmation was just made last week. An even newer QuickVPN is in the works that supposedly will allow you to manually choose weather to connect at 443 or 60443. Last word is that it would be out soon. I have been beta testing for Linksys, I will post here when I get more info.
