Contivity VPN Client and Windows Media

by jennifer . Updated 19 years, 2 months ago

Has anyone had any issues connecting through VPN on Windows Media? I am using Contivity Client V6.01 (I’ve also tried some previous versions) and going through a Linksys router with a wireless connection. My laptop, which runs XP Home, runs flawlessly with the same client and the same connection parameters through the same Linksys router.

When I first connect to the VPN site, it appears successful. Just a few seconds later, my wireless connection disappears. It’s not just the media center, either — it brings down my whole internet connection. Once the VPN client detects the loss of the connections, just a few seconds later, the internet connection reconnects. It’s as though the VPN connection and my home network’s internet connection are mutally exclusive.

Anyone else find a solution?
