IKEv2 with MR1100

Hey all,   I was wondering if anyone had used the MR1100 to connect to VPN on IKEv2? I have had issues connecting to my work VPN using this protocol and wondered if anyone else had this experience?...

Hi All,

 

Further to this I have also tried using my old AC800s and have got the same issue of trying to connect to my work vpn.

 

I have tried the following with both Modems:

 

VPN Passthrough

DMZ mode to static IP

My work vpn uses UDP ports 500 and 4500 but I cannot connect.

It cannont find in the web interface anything to make sure these ports are open.

I have been able to use an old huwawei modem and connect fine.

Any help appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Felix

    Hi Netduma,

     

    I have tried this with two netgear routers:

    The Netgear Nighthawk M1 MR1100

    And the Netgear AC800s.

     

    I am wondering if other people have had problems with these two devices and IKEv2 VPN connections?


    Cheers,

    F

      Sorry I should have been clearer, this section of the community is for the Nighthawk Pro Gaming range of routers - the XR300, XR450, XR500 & XR700. So to get more accurate answers for your issues then posting your questions to the Nighthawk link above would be better.
