TomatoUSB

Dear All,

I just installed tomato build 54 on my asus rt-n16. I am a noob with router administration. My husband brings his work laptop home to work remotely a few days a week. He could work fine with the asus firmware except I had to reboot the router almost everyday so all of my wireless devices could continue to connect. I decided to install tomato to get rid of the problem. I just tested his work laptop . I cannot connect to his cisco work vpn. Is there something I must enable in tomato to get it to work again? He expects to work from home in the morning and I need to make sure he can.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I can tell this is a great firmware. Thanks to all for their work on this.

Sincerely,

Marcia

Have you erased the nvram after installing Tomato? Make sure you do that before you try anything else.

There are no special settings to enable VPN access - it should just work. BTW, I'm using Cisco VPN client to connect to a couple different private networks with no problems.

You can try to un-check "PPTP/GRE" helper on the Conntract/Netfilter page, but I doubt it will help in case of Cisco VPN. For further troubleshooting enable logging of connections blocked by firewall (on the Administration -> Logging page) and see if anything there gives a clue…

Thank you for your answer. It is working now. I did erase the nvram after installing Tomato. Before I received your reply I went into the admin page and did a few things. It was late and I do not know what I did, but it worked fine after that. I am so grateful. I can tell this is a great firmware. It is nice to know that the cisco should just work. My husband never knew there was a glitch by the time he used his computer.

I will take your advice, too.

Thank you again.

Marcia
