Router blocking VPN access
I installed Netgear Armor about a week ago and it slowed everything down and labelled alot of processes as Phishing. Got rid of that immediately. Now my computer will not connect to my boss's VPN and...
yeah everything worked fine, additionally my boss changed the VPN type from PPTP to L2TP w/ preshared key around the same time. A perfect storm it seems
Yay. LOL
Well, try a factory reset on the Router and setup from scratch. Don't enable Armor, Parental controls, or Traffic Meter and see if the PC gets connected. If not, you can try putting the PC in the DMZ of the router as a temporary quick test to see if this helps. It shouldn't be needed though. If it still fails, i'd get with the boss and check on the VPN configuration on this PC.
