I'm always to ping yes and i get a response.
Yes, I'm able to use and surf internet explorer everything is fine.
Yes i'm able to connect from home before and others employee too.
I'm having the same problem when i connect from different location.
I'm conecting via a wireless conections... before I do that and it's working...
Dynamic or static IP u mean for my VPN, this is the ip of my VPN above.
No the ip didn't change.
No i'm not the only one not able to access the VPN. Others have the same situation.
Please advice dear expert.
on some wireless networks you have to enable VPNs. a vpn connection usually creates larger packets to be transmitted. sometimes these packets are unable to traverse the wireless network.
also, some wireless networks may drop the connections. if you are not connected to VPN, you may not notice that your vpn connection has been dropped and reconnected. with cisco VPN, if keepalives are enabled and a keepalive is not revieved or acknowledged for a specified time period, your connection will be terminated.
to troubleshoot this problem, try connecting to your vpn from the same location but use a wired connection. this will help you to determine if your wireless network needs to be 'tweaked'.
Who controls the other end of the VPN connection? ie. Have you verified that your account is still valid and that your credentials are still correct? Could they have implemented a new VPN policy, for example, that you must have firewall software enabled before allowing you to VPN in?
Did you make any changes to your home router configuration setttings recently? Some routers require that you specifically state that you allow IPSEC traffic to traverse.
You might want to also try going into your connection entry in your Cisco VPN client and modify it. Go to the Transport tab and make sure you have "Enable Trasparent Tunneling" check marked. If you are current set to use UDP (NAT/PAT), try changing it to IPSec over TCP and save your changes and try to connect again.
I was under the assumption that you are trying to VPN into your work's network. If that's correct, is there a network team that set up your VPN login account and credentials that you can contact and verify your account is still valid?
What version of the Cisco VPN client are you using? Would it be possible to uninstall and reinstall it?
Yes, i'm trying to vpn to my works network from home. There was a consultant guy came and did the installation for us and he provide me the username and password. but it was working correctly by chance this what happens now... do u think i need to renew a license or something etc.... ?
Curently on my laptop vista bus i'm using version 5.0.01.0600
What do u think?
Just to summarize..... you are running Windows Vista on your personal computer with a Cisco VPN client version 5.0. You connect to the internet via a home wireless router. You are trying to connect to your work's VPN at IP address: 209.217.118.34 which you can ping fine but can't connect.
Is your work's VPN host a Cisco router? Cisco PIX firewall? or A Cisco Concentrator? Is that the device you are trying to SSH into to check the configs?
You might need to add this command to the config "isakmp nat-t"

Sorrry, I'm not familiar with ASDM. I have only configured routers/firewall via the command line. Maybe someone else can post some help with ASDM. If you want I can send you some VPN login credentials to your hotmail account where you can test your client against another connection. That way we can rule out your laptop/VPN client as the cause of the issue.

Sorry, lots of questions to get a better picture of what is going wrong.....
Are you able to browse the internet fine before trying to VPN in?
Is the Host entry a name or an IP address? Do you know if the entry in your host connection allows ping requests? If yes, can you ping the host before trying to VPN in?
Are you always trying to connect from the same location when you have the problem? Have you tried connecting from a different location to see if you run into the same problem?
Are you connecting from a hard-wired connection or a wireless connection?
