a client of mine is having a problem in that he is trying to connect to our network from home. This person uses AOL Broadband and AOL is version 7 in windows 2k pro. We have a cisco 3000 concentrator and our clients use the cisco vpn dialer to connect to this. We've found that AOL Broadband is pretty much a vpn connection in itself and when this person tries to connect to the network via the vpn dialer, AOL disconnects. I have found an article from Cisco that says if we turn split tunnelingon, that this should fix the problem but I'm not so sure we want to do that. Has anyone else by chance seen this and found a different work around for it?

We used split tunneling, actually. If you don't, then you can have only one connection at a time...

Ihave tried to use AOL for a vpn setup using a Linksys BEFVP41 and AOL broadband dsl and could not get it to work due the fact that AOL has special software that they want to sell you to make it work. I gave up and went to bellsouth for the dsl, andnow it works great.
