Home network to 172.16.x.x and it works fine now.

Tried also connecting on a Linux virtual machine but it did not work (and I didn't try to make it work). However once i connect to the VPN my Network tab on my Macbook shows 2 routers and my printer (I am connecting to my neighbors wifi to test all this). Even though I can see my network printer I cannot print to it through the VPN, and I cant see any of my other shares.
