I am new to implementing VPN service. What I would like to do is install a RV042 or RV082 (for added speed) and configure it to allow me to access the Internet (from home base) through the VPN from any location while on the road and using my laptop. My questions are: Can this be done? If so, what needs to be done in the configuration to allow gateway access to the Internet? I can't find any reference in the Cicso documents, but somewhere I saw that it can be done. I don't care about accessing anything on the local LAN. As I would be using the same Internet connection for the VPN and the access to get out----how would this affect speed? I plan to use Quick VPN as the client, and haven't even touched the client issue.
I configure my new purchase RV042 router, in Access Rule i Deny all services the source is Lan and destination is WAN. my concern is i want to allow LAN to access internet, so i'ved create another rule which allow http, https. but my problem is i cannot access internet.
I've installed RV042 for a client of mine. For next two months everything worked without any problems. The issue I've been experiencing lately is when I assign a static IP address to the PC it won't have internet access. Once I allow it to have a dynamically assigned IP then it works fine. The IP I assign isn't part of the DHCP range.
We have RV 042 deployed for internet access/firewall purposes. Due to growing number for Wireless devices and also to separate WLAN traffic from wired devices, we have created a separate VLAN/IP Subnet for the wifi devices. We are having trouble accessing the internet from the WiFi VLAN/IP Subnet. Cisco 3750 is layer 2 and layer 3 device. We have VLAN 1 (10.10.10.0/255.255.255.0), all wired devices and RV 042 are part of VLAN 1. Connectivity to internet from VLAN 1 is good. VLAN 2 (192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0) was created for wifi devices, 3750 does the inter-vlan routing, I have enabled the multiple subnet feature on the RV 042 and added 192.168.1.2 / 24 to the subnet list, we still have issues accessing internet from vlan 2 devices.
As a workaround, I shutdown vlan 2 and added 192.168.1.0/24 as secondary address to the VLAN 1 interface on 3750 and i was able to access internet from 192.168.1.0/24 network with wifi devices also on vlan 1, we want wifi devices to be on separate vlan / ip subnet. Looking at the documentation for RV series routers, it talks about supporting multiple subnets access to internet by enabling multiple subnet feature but it doesn't seem to work.Are there restrictions on having multiple vlans?
I have been trying to resolve this issue with only allow facebook access throug the content filter between 12pm and 1 pm. However The settings never seem to take. Is this a bug in the system? If I start the filtering from 1300 to 1200 that should allow facebook to be accessible only on lunch.
I had this problem where 2 users could only access my RV042 vpn one at a time
The Linksys solution was to give these 2 users a RV042 as well. That worked, 2 can access my vpn at the same time. We use QuickVPN for this purpose
But now there users cannot access another Cisco vpn any more in our office. I attach a schematic and a screen shot of the error when trying to connect to the professional vpn with vpn client version 5.0.07.290
The 2 notebooks epresent the 2 users The one at the bottom is my vpn The connection on the left is the professional vpn
We now use remote desktop to my vpn to get to the professional vpn, that work but we don't like it
brand new RV042 client (tried MacOS and Win7 on two laptops) will get IP from DHCP and shows correct IPs for gateway etc. - however entering the IP 192.168.1.1 to access web admin does not work (tried current versions of Firefox, safari and Firefox); browser is not offline router was reset to factory setting (by pressing reset for over 30sec) ping on IP above works
I've setup a GroupVPN and connect to the RV042 with the Shrewsoft VPN client, works like a charm as opposed to QuickVPN ;-)The firewall is configured with an explicit deny rule for RDP access to an internal server, also an explicit allow rule is created for certain IP numbers as source. I noticed that I need to create an explicit allow rule for the subnet the Shrewsoft client is using for the virtual adapter or I will not be able to access the internal server via RDP through the GroupVPN tunnel. I would think that setting up a tunnel defies the rules created for direct access on the WAN port.
I have an RV042 with the PPTP server configured, which is working because I can connect with my iPad and droid phones, however, I'm unable to access resources on the RV042 side (192.168.1.X) when my local network is the same ip scheme (192.168.1.x). It works fine when I'm on a different network like 3G or someone else's Wifi network (192.168.11.X).
I am trying to setup a VPN using an RV042 (fw ver: 1.3.12.6) to access a VISTA computer over the internet using a laptop using QVPN's latest version. I finally got it to connect but then hang's with error " Gateway is not responding, do you want to wait?". If I say yes it go through the login again and hangs. If I say no, it hangsup. I've tried a couple different ideas using tunnelling and static IPs in the router but nothing. All I want is to be able to access one computer through the RV042 over the internet from any other computer using the QVPN.
Very recently, we had implemented Site-to-Site VPN tunnel between two Linksys RV042 4-port VPN routers. Everybody in our remote site is accessing and sharing the data through this tunnel and it is working fine.
Now, we have a plan to implement the same for our mobile clients also. For this, we had followed all the basic configuration procedures and user got connected to Quick VPN tunnel. Here is a problem we had observed. The mobile client user is connected to the tunnel, but unable to access the office LAN from the PC.
I am trying to limit HTTP access to my server on the local network to a specific IP address. I create an Access Rule in the firewall section, however that doesn't work. The only way it works is if I add the internal IP address of the server to the Forwarding section where I create a new HTTP forwarding rule.However, that is not good because that allows ALL HTTP traffic to that server instead of just by the single IP address.
I have 2 VLANs set up and I know they are set as default to not allow one to communicate to the other. Is there a way to set a rule to allow that? I'd like VLAN1 to be able to access VLAN2, but not the other way around.
I have 02 router Linksys Rv042 ( 01 old and 01 new ). I'm config router Rv042 new and router connect Internet. But router connect internet very slow. When i using Vigor 2910 connect internet very Fast or using router Rv042 Old connect internet very fast. Two Rv042 the Same. I don't using firewall.
I have a RV042 and have set it up for VPN Client access using the QuickVPN client to connect my remote users. I discovered today that I cannot have two users connect in at the same time. Both users are in the same remote office. They can connect individually with no problem but if one is connected and the other tries connect also the second user gets a message the gateway is not responding. They are both running Win XP PRo SP3.
So here is my issue. I have two sites, each with a Linksys RV042 on thier site.
Site 1: External: 142.142.142.142 Internal: 192.168.25.0/24
Site 2: External: 143.143.143.143 Internal: 192.168.26.0/24
We have setup a site-to-site VPN between these sites, and all traffic is running back and forth without isse.
At Site 1 we have configured the Client VPN for use with the QuickVPN software. Again, for site 1, this is not an issue. We are able to access all internal resources at Site 1 without issue (expect for some DNS related problems).
The problem that we have is attempting to access Site 2 resources via the QuickVPN connection at Site 1. Even though they are not suppose to exist, we are able to ping 192.168.26.1-6 (which are ghost addresses likely created by the RV042's) but no actual systems on at Site 2.
I have added the Client VPN connection at Site 2, but it has the same problem accessing resources at Site 1.
I have configured PPTP Server on RV042, and created 3 accounts. I am able to connect from Windows PC without any problems.
In the router's logging utility, there doesn't appear to be any log entries indicating either successful or failed attempts to connect to PPTP server. The only access logs I see are for access to the router's configuration utility. Is there a way to view PPTP access in the router system log?

we have 2 thompson HDSL routers connected to the internet. we want to combine them to have higher bandwidth and load balancing so we attached them to a linksys rv042 router. we are running a Xbox applications that require high speed internet streaming.
if the RV042 can combine those 2 high speed internet connections, without disconnecting.
I attempted a firmware upgrade on my RV042. After an hour, the upgrade was still in progress. I now cannot login into the router using my user name and password (nor the old admin/admin). The router is functioning, but I fear it will eventually fail. How can I recover ability to log in? The Firmward Recovery program doesn't seem to be appropriate for this situation.
After upgrading the firmware on my RV042 router to version 1.3.13.02-tm, I am experiencing very slow Internet response on most sites. In some instances, when the page does load, it lacks many graphics. Frequently, I also receive a "server not found"error. In all cases, reloading the page (once it has loaded) results in a complete page display. This is occuring on two MacBook Pros and also on an iPad. The router is a version 1, so no further upgrades are available. I contacted support, but since it is out of warranty, they are unwilling to assist. Prior to the upgrade, everything worked fine, as it has for 5 years.
We have offices in USA and Venezuela.In our USA office we have a RV042 router and in Venezuela we have a RV082 router.We have connected a VPN tunnel (gateway-to-gateway) between both offices.
The point is:How could we redirect the internet traffic from our Venezuela office (RV082) to the USA Office (RV042) to navigate using USA public IP's?
The reason for this is that we need to use online streaming services which are only available for IP's from USA and we can't use them from the Venezuelan IP's.
We can not use the PPTP option since the equipment which will use the streaming services (like hulu, crackle, etc.) in Venezuela is a Google TV device which doesn't allow the configuration of proxy navegation or PPTP VPN connections itself. That's the reason why we need to do that through the routers.
We have a VOIP system from AT&T with T1 internet access. I have a RV042 setup as the default gateway for the network and the router randomly (usually over the weekend loses the internet). I have updated to the latest firmware and have check all logs on the server. When the internet access goes down we can still access the internal network. I have been power-cycling the router and then everything works fine. Is there a known issue with this router radomly blocking internet access in or out? This device should remain working at all times so that our remote users can access the company network.
I wonder if I can have a RV042 VPN Tunnel to a RV082, and in the RV082 block all traffic to the internet that comes form the PCs that are behind the RV042.
Remote PC -> RV042 -> VPN -> RV082 -> RV082 Firewall (block internet traffice, allow intranet traffic)
I have an RV042 using Quick VPN to connect to a remote network. I have port 1723 forwarded to a static IP address on a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit PC. I can establish the VPN and ping a printer but not the Win 7 PC. I can not acccess any shares on the pc via the IP address. It has Norton Antivirus and Windows Firewall. This remote PC replaced a Windows xp PC that allowed access to the shares. I have tried access with a Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista Home Premium PC. Neither have worked.
I am using an RV042 router/firewall -- firmware v1.3.13.02-tm -- connected to a cable modem.I have one public address (WAN1) assigned by my ISP's DHCP server.All my machines on the LAN have static IPs. (RV042 DHCP Server is disabled.)I have set up port (80) forwarding to 192.168.1.101 The HTTP port forwarding does work if an http client on the LAN sends a request to http://<public-ip>:80But I cannot get a response if I send a request to http://<public-ip>:80 from a machine on the WAN.
I did configure Access Rules to allow http traffic (and then tried to allow *all* traffic) between a single IP on the WAN and 192.168.1.101 The incoming log table shows a connection is made from the http client on the internet to the correct http server on the LAN, but there is no resonse from the LAN to the remote client.Is my configuration the problem, or is this feature not supported by the RV042 router? Could my cable modem be blocking outbound traffic?
I am using the default configuration at this point. I just connected 1 computer using the default IP with DHCP on the RV042 router. 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0.I connect my wildblue satalite modem using a static IP address 75.106.203.xxx / 255.255.252.0 I can ping the RV042 router and the static IP address of the wildblue router but I can't ping the gateway on the wildblue side. Either from the PC or the Router diag tools.
I have RV042 and E4200 routers . I tried the manual UPnP port forwarding using Rv042 router and was succesful ( by typing 192.168.1.1 in the explorer and logged in using user name and password )
I am using a linux embedded system whose Internal IP ,Internal port are mapped .This system is connected to one of the LAN ports
I want to try auto UPnP port forwarding both for RV042 router and Linksys E4200 routers
After enabling the Upnp option only and logging out ,Can i add a port mapping entry in this router without logging in using a C++ program which runs on linux embedded system .
I was looking for a small business router that has VPN support and dual WAN support for load balancing. Upon reading reviews, I think RV042/RV042G is a good choice. Now am thinking if it supports intervlan/ router-on-a-stick configuration?
I am trying to setup internet access and intranet access using two cards per PC. I don't have sever software and I want to be able to share files between several machines. I have two routers. One that connects to cable modem and one that connects to intranet side. I have assigned different static ip addresses to both cards.
I have a laptop that I take to work, and would like to set things up to use my home internet connection from elsewhere. I don't have another computer to function as a server for me at home, so would like to do it so that my router alone provides this access (log into it from the internet anywhere and use my internet as if I am using it from home). How would I go about doing this? Would it require installing new firmware?
