vpn trhough DI-614+ wont work

[mespe]

Hi all:

I have a DI-614+ Router from D-link, but when trying to conect trhough vpn with a computer conected wirelessly to such router, wont work. We use software on the client side to connect to the vpn, and if we use an external ip adress provided by our isp directly to the machine it works fine, but when we try to go trough the mentioned router the conection gives error: "Security negotiation timed out err no. 792".

Do you think there is any special configuration for the router? I checked on the advanced page of it to enable IPSEC and PPPT, but still no progress.

thanks in advance for any help

Error 792 - The L2TP Connection Attempt failed because security negotiation timed out.

Causes: 1. This behavior can occur because you have a preshared key that is configured on the client, but the key is not configured on the Routing and Remote Access Service server.
2. VPN server is not a valid machine certificate or is missing.
3. The IPSec Policy Agent service is stopped and started without stopping and starting the Routing and Remote Access service on the remote computer.
4.The IPSec Policy Agent service is not running when you start the Routing and Remote Access service.

Mespe,

Don't know if you are still having a problem out of your D-link 614, but in my experience we have had to make sure the firmware is updated or VPN will not pass through the router.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

I don't understand to detail the points given by Mr.Lin, but I do know that when installing the same vpn on a machine that has an external ip works with no problem. So I guess is the problem is not on the external server.

As for your question 1911man, I will update firmware, currently we have ver. 3.20, we'll see how it goes.
