Here is an Interesting one.
My boss is used to VPN in to do some work on the weekend, the laptop lease ended so we got a Lat D630. Now she’s unable to connect to the VPN with the new Laptop. the connection gets stuck on the Connecting to *.*.*.* Part and fails with error 800.
The Server she’s trying to connect to, 10 other people connect to it via VPN and no issues.
The firewall is off.
No Internet security software is installed.
Norton Corp edition is installed, disabled and tried just for giggles and Nothing.
Tried connecting when using Wireless , Nothing.
Tried connecting using a Bberry as a modem, Nothing. ( this bberry was tested successfully with another laptop)
Obviously the hardware is not an issue since the only thing that’s not working is the VPN.
The only thing i haven’t tried yet is reinstalling TCP/IP not sure if that will do anything.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated as this is getting really frustrating.
by the way yes this is just plain MS VPN connecting to RAS server.
