VPN through wireless router (NTL)

    I'm able to connect to my work's VPN(using sonicwall) when I hook my laptop up directly to my Motorolla Surfboard cable modem (supplied by NTL).

    However, when I try to connect via my Netgear wireless router (wired or wirelessly) I can't. My internet connection is fine - just can't get on to VPN.

    Does anyone know of some router setting that might be stopping this?

    Many thanks

    I had a similar problem with a Zoom router, turning ON the firewall fixed the problem :rolleyes:
    Reported it to tech support, they could not explain that one.
    My firewall is IKE aware, perhaps yours is too.

    If that's not it, use Wireshark to capture packets & compare good (direct modem) Vs bad (Netgear) sessions.
