Cisco rv 180w VPN IPsec SA Not Established

Gateway to Gateway VPN

RV 180w on both ends

This VPN was working till one location experienced a power outage over the weekend. Both locations have Internet access but can't connect VPN.

I checked all VPN settings to make sure nothing had changed in either router, WAN Static IP is still the same on both ends. Next I upgraded firmware to v. 1.0.4.14 on both ends, deleted existing settings in both routers and used the "Basic VPN Setup" option. Same problem - IPsec SA Not Established. I have searched for a VPN log in the menu but haven't found it.

SA is usually a mismatch between encryption methods or the shared secret.

Double check that your isakmp encryption settings match up.

MattV-

Since you were the only expert to respond I'll give you the points but actually the Telco caused the problem. as soon as they raised the Mtu everything started working again. Thanks for trying.
Thanks rettif9, glad you got it working.

We could also have adjusted the MTU on the tunnel to overcome the telecom settings.
