I have a VPN set up between 2 Linksys WRV200 Routers. Router A is on DSL, Router B is on Time Warner Cable access. Both routers show the tunnel connected, however I cant ping anything on the other side, including the router. Time warner says that their little Ambit Modem isnt blocking any ports. Any ideas on what's going on? Other tunnels coming back to this main office work fine. Just not the one on time warner.

Thanks
 
So, is router B at the main office then? What other tunnels---through what other devices/WAN connections? Are these IPSEC tunnels? Are the tunnels that work fine also use the same routers? Are the VPN pools excluded from being NATted back out? Can you post a route print from the command line in a Windows box?

I am using a Linksys WRV210 on Roadrunner (ex-Adelphia) to connect via IPSEC to a Linksys RV042 on CableOne, so Time Warner is not always blocking this. Neither is exactly your router but both are close.

I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
 
Holy crap, Jimbo---I just noticed that you're not the one who started this...I was thinking..."Jimbo has a problem with VPN's?!?!?!"lol
That is a compliment, hope you don't take it the wrong way! I enjoy reading your answers in some of these threads, especially about VPN's.

Thanks for the help guys. I got this worked out. There was an issue with the WRV200 at the main office.
