Thanx for the how to! it works for me!
@almightygun I think he needs to use the routers public address inorder to get to that server from outside (internet). Not sure why he is tunnelling to the same workstation. thats kinda funny…
@almightygun I think he needs to use a public address, otherwise when you type that local address fom another network you wont get anywhere outside that local network.
Derrick can you clarify? Thanks…
Never mind I figured it out. i needed only the router ip address. not anything else.
when I type ipconfig my server dosn’t show up, just my wireless connection. Is that the default gateway i type in? if so, what do i type in the internet address box? if i put my pc’s name or ip address it won’t connect. I am trying to connect my fathers, brothers, and my pc together, we are in differen’t cities. Please help and explain in real words.
it looks like u just connected to your self
you are setting up a local VPN, isn’t that pointless
ok isn’t that 10.0.0.1 your local ip?
it looks like u just set up a vpn to your self???????????????
i am so confused.
were do you get the user name and password. when I set it up on a computer, and it excepts incoming connections and then try and and connect on another computer. where do you get the username and password?
im getting error 807 -_-
There’s a big error in this video. On the client he should have put in the gateway address, and not the VPN server’s internal LAN IP address. His client was on the same LAN, so it worked for him, but if he was actually in a remote location (the whole point of setting up a VPN) and not on the same LAN, it would not have worked.
@SonicOrbStudios VPN allows your computers or devices to be connected anywhere around the world where there is internet connection. Workplaces use this to keep their workers connected. A VPN is useful because if you are, for example, at an internet cafe, and you want to go check your email, connecting to your VPN encrypts the connection so that nobody can see what you are doing.
same issue here, error 800. The remote connection was not made? because the attempted VPN tunnels failed. The VPN server might be unreachable. If this connection is attempting to use an L2TP/IPsec tunnel, the security parameters required for IPsec negotiation might not be configured properly.
Maybe someone can help. Already forward ports 1723 and GRE 47 to vpn server. also enabled vpn pass through.

tried router and no router
Are any particular setting in order to browse local network by computer name? (when connected over VPN to the said network)
thanks
So what’s the main reason to setup a VPN compared to just jumping on your standard network?
I am receiving error 720 help?
oh and also wanted to add that i have setup a pptp , l2tp and ipsec pass through already but no effect. still cannot connect to home win7 von server
