Can't connect to work VPN through R6250
Hello all, I used to be able to bring my work laptop home and connect to my work e-mail, as well as connect to my office VPN through my R6250 wireless router. I hadn't done it in awhile but have had a need to access that information from home again. When I attempted to use my Microsoft Outlook e-mail, it will not sync to the mail server at home. Also, the VPN connection, which used to work flawlessly, will no longer connect. I hadn't changed any settings in my routher since I installed it nearly two years ago, but I have upgraded the firmward to the most recent release. Has anyone got any ideas or tips of settings I can look for in the routher that may be blocking the ability to sync my e-mail or use the VPN? Thanks in advance for your assistance!SolvedWRN1000v3 VPN Setup

Hi. I recently switched from an old TPLink router and bought a Netgear R6400 wifi router with hopes to boost my home wifi performance. Before that I easily could connect through my work VPN connection over PPTP. After switching to Netgear I have all the time error 806 (no support for GRE protocol). I read some info about that and decided to set up the port forwarding: I choose my laptop IP address and set external and internal ports on 1723. I also checked on the Respond to Ping on Internet Port. Later on I also set up the Default DMZ Server on my laptop IP address. Still - I cannot connect with my VPN connection that was working previously and I know it works fine in different enviroment. Beside that - I have in my office all setups on DHCP and working on static IP isn`t the best solution either. Right now I`m wondering what I`m doing wrong? Or maybe I should be dissapointed with Netgear for not supporting typical VPN pass-through? Please help and point me some directions. My current firmware is: V1.0.1.22_1.0.17Solved
