I have tried to set up a vpn for about 3 weeks now but cant seem to get it to work. I keep getting error 800 when I test it.

I have configured both the desktop and router with the appropriate port forwarding.

And on the laptop I have set up the vpn connection with the correct setting but i keep getting the error.

Also the port forwarding is enabled and the firewall is configured.

I can’t figure it out

If you require any other info please let me know.

Thanks so much
