Cisco VPN Client, Linksys WAG54GS router and Vista combination does not work

Asked by catherinelouise in Virtual Private Networking (VPN), Network Routers, Windows Vista

Tags:

My Cisco VPN client(v5.0.02.0900) is failing with 'Reason 412: The remote peer is no longer responding ' when I use my laptop with Windows Vista Business edition, and Linksys WAG54GS router (firmware v.1.01.01).  I never get a password prompt.

I CAN connect using the same VPN client, same laptop, but over another network -> suggests problem is not with the laptop.

I CAN connect using a Cisco VPN client on my Mac over my Linksys WAG54GS router -> suggests the problem is not with the router.

So there seems to be a problem with the specific combination of my router and Vista.  I have tried restoring factory defaults on the router ensuring IPSec passthrough is enabled, and disabled UPnP and firewall (on both router and Vista).

Any suggestions of other checks or changes I should make?  I'm considering upgrading router firmware as next step.Start Free Trial
