Cisco Routers :: QuickVPN In Windows 7 Not Connecting To RVS4000
Oct 11, 2011
When I use QuickVPN under XP, I connect to my RVS4000 without problems. When I switch to new computer running Windows 7 and V4.2.1 QuickVPN I can get all the way to Verifying Network. Then I get the message that: "The remote gateway is not responding. Do you want to wait?" - repeatedly. The icon in the tool bar remains with a red slash and I am unable to ping devices on the lan side of the router. However, when I check the VPN Summary on the router, I see that it thinks I'm connected. When I check the VPN log I see that I am not:
Oct 12 10:27:53 - Configuration changed!
Oct 12 10:28:33 - Configuration changed!
Oct 12 10:28:34 - [VPN Log]: added connection description "ValR_rw_rw"
[Code]....
I've disabled MS Security Essentials and made sure the Firewall is on. IPSec Policy Agent and IKE and AuthIP IPSec Keying Modules services are both started. I've created a rule to allow QuickVPN throught the firwall in and out and a rule to let traffic on 443 and 60443 UDP and TCP through the Firewall.
Is there a safe way to use the Cisco VPN Client (V5.x) and Cisco Quick VPN (V1.4.1.2) on the same Windows PC? I need to access my office RVS4000 and my customer's PIX 506 from the same laptop (but not at the same time).
Perhaps I should be asking "Is there a single Windows VPN client that works with both the Cisco RVS4000 and Cisco PIX 506? I have seen these questions asked on various forums but have yet to see a definitive answer.
Using the latest Cisco QuickVPN, my Windows 7, 64 bit laptop processes the QuickVPN connection to the point where the laptop attempts to ping the router and verify the connection. Those pings fail.Windows firewall is ON and IPSEC is started on the laptop. I have tried Kaspersky's firewall both enabled and disabled with no change.
I have a home network with an Actiontec Q1000 providing me 20 meg down and 5 meg up speeds. The DSL modem supports DHCP, DMZ, port forwarding, application forwarding, filtering, etc. I have an existing network 192.168.0.x that uses a combination of DHCP and static IP addresses for printers, scanners, and servers.I just purchased a RVS4000 and configured its LAN port to accept a DHCP address. It received the .26 address. I set up application and port forwarding so all VPN traffic goes to this address. I also put the router in the DMZ and turned off all firewalls.On the LAN side of the RVS4000 I use the 192.168.1.x address and have the 4000 provide DHCP addresses. I have a PC connected to the LAN port and it has the address of 1.100. I am able to use TeamViewer to connect to this through the internet and I can also access the devices on the Actiontec network from the PC connected to the 4000.I set up the VPN as best I could while going through appendix B of the admin guide. When I am at a remote location and use the QuickVPN client to access the 4000 I get the message, "The remote gateway is not responding. Do you want to wait?'. When I look at the log everything looks good except I get the following error:
[WARNING]Failed to ping remote VPN Router!
I am unable to get a DHCP address for my remote PC and am unable to ping any device on either network. What do I have configured wrong that this is not working?I only purchased this so I can use the VPN. Is the VPN established on the Actiontec LAN or on the RVS4000 LAN side? I am obviously connecting to the 4000 but am just not getting an address so I can not use my home office network for all my communications.
I am trying to connect with QuickVPN to my RVS4000 in another location. I get this message: "The remote gateway is not responding. Do you want to wait?'
I have a RVS4000 router, and using Quick VPN client (latest version, 1.4.2.1?) on a computer with Windows Vista. I can connect to the router, and I can see computers, and drives on the network. When I click on a drive or computer, I can't connect to the devices. Local IP address are 192.168.1.x, remote is 192.168.2.x.
I have been battling with my Cisco RV120W router and QuickVPN.Running Windows 7 Home PremiumPerformed a fresh install to factory out-of-box install for WindowsRemoved NortonDid NOT perform any windows updatesInstalled QuickVN version 1.2.4.1I have updated the firmware to the latest version (confirmed by cisco)I can connet to the router and have a stable connectionI can ping both the router IP and the shared file server IPWhen I enter the shared file server IP into the search field (e.g. \192.168.100.199) and press enter, I see a connection to "share", so I click on this and then see "FolderName" of my shared files. I click on this folder and I get a timed out error.When I enter the routers IP address into a browser (IE8 as factory installed) I get a timed out error also.In the past, I have installed all important and recommended updates for Windows and still get the same scenerioI have called cisco support and went through router settings, assigned them a VPN username, they log in and can access the files without issue (What the @#$$@#$)Cisco support spent plenty of time with me, but since they could access my network and since I could ping my devices, they had no other suggestions further.
I have this fresh factor out-of-box install. I know this is most likely something to do with my laptop that I am trying to use to connect to the network. I have Frontier as my ISP for home. I don't know if there is anything they are doing to interfere with my connection. I have tried to connect to the network via ComCast as well, with no luck.tell me if there is something I need to tweak in my Windows 7 settings?
I've been working on getting a client to Gateway configuration going for quite some time now. Had it working with a different Cisco single wan router that failed. The user replaced the router with an RV042 and we are trying to get the QuickVPN to once again connect to the router as it did before the replacement. Previously we did connect successfully with Windows 7 clients.
Router: RV042 v3 firmware 4.0.4.02-tm Quickvpn version 1.4.2.1
what i keep getting in the log is the following :
2012/10/02 12:55:07 [STATUS]OS Version: Windows Vista 2012/10/02 12:55:07 [STATUS]Windows Firewall Domain Profile Settings: ON 2012/10/02 12:55:07 [STATUS]Windows Firewall Private Profile Settings: ON
I have a Cisco RV082 and can successfully connect with the Cisco QuickVPN Client, 1.4.2.1. However, after 1 to 5 minutes I see the Windows 7 bluescreen indicating that the system has halted due to a problem with a driver. I have installed the latest Windows updates and reinstalled the client.
The bluescreen only occurs if I use the Cisco QuickVPN Client.
I installed QuickVPN v1.4.2.1 as it was in the download section on Linksys: [URL]
for the RV082 router we have. It connected but the program seemed buggy as there seemed to be no way to close the program after I used it so I wanted to uninstall it and install a more recent version of QuickVPN (side question: is it possible to VPN connect to my RV082 router with a different version of QuickVPN?).
I have Windows 7 Professional 64bit SP1 with all the latest updates. When I try to uninstall the program, at about the 25% mark of the window for 'QuickVPN Client Setup is preparing the InstallShield Wizard, which will guide you through the rest of the setup process. Please wait.' it seems to stop responding as holding the mouse over that windows just displayes a ring which goes round and round. I regret installing this buggy software on my PC.
I'm trying to connect through a VPN to RVS4000 router that I have VLAN'ed into two seperate networks 192.168.1.x (default) and 192.168.77.x. When i connect with the QuickVPN Client, I have no problems seeing devices on the 192.168.1.x network but i can't see the 192.168.77.x devices; so i'm assuming that the QuickVPN client software puts me on the default network and not the "77" network. Thing is, i only want to VPN into the "77" network and not the 192.168.1.x network.
Will QuickVPN allow me to do this? If not how do I VPN into the 192.168.77.x network?
I'm replacing my RVS4000 with the RV180 but having VPN connection issues with the RV180. Let me know the VPN tunnels work perfectly fine on the RVS4000.I have configured my RV180 for 3 VPN tunnels. My ISP is Comcast (cable) Business class with a Static IP. First VPN tunnel is to another Comcast ISP and the VPN works flawlessly - connects immediately.Second VPN Tunnel is to Business class ISP (Verizon-NJ) and VPN will NOT connect.Third VPN Tunnel is to Business class ISP (Cox Network-VA) and VPN will NOT connect.I had opened both the RVS4000 and RV180 up on a browser and both settings from the units were idential. I reconnect the RVS4000, VPN tunnels work great, I unplug and reconnect the RV180, the Comcast VPN works, but the other two do not.From what the log is saying "[IKE] WARNING: no phase2 found" and the other says "[IKE] ERROR: remote identifier not found". It has to be something with the RV180 that I'm missing or possibly configuring incorrectly.
I have created a VPN client account on my RVS4000 router. I have installed Quick VPN on my laptop in the default directory -- Program Files (x86) / Cisco Small Business / Quick VPN Client
I have generated and exported a certificate -- RVS4000_Client.pem -- and placed that in the Program Files (x86) / Cisco Small Business / Quick VPN Client directory. When I attempt to connect using the Quick VPN client, I get the warning "Server's certificate doesn't exist on your local computer."
If I ignore the message I can log in, and ping resources inside the network and log into the router. However, I cannot mount any drives and the router shows that no VPN tunnels exist. I've read several posts here and elsewhere and can't seem to see where I've gone wrong.
I'm trying to connect my WAG160N as a ADSL modem (disable the router function) and connect a real router (RVS4000)So, i put my WAG160N on birdged mode only, disable the DHCP on my RVS4000, i did configure my PPPOE access (user and password), change the IP adress 192.168.0.2.configure the DHCP and try to connect. i tryed to connect the RVS4000 and the WAG160N either with cross cable or a direct cable. I can get access to the RVS4000 192.168.0.2 and get access to the configuration menu but cannot get access to my WAG160N 192.168.0.1 even a simple ping.when i try to test the connection on my RVS4000 (status) it seems that my connection is up but i cannot get access to internet.
I recently installed a new RV120W router at one of my customer's office. I have 2 users connecting using the Quick VPN software.The first one is running on a Windows XP Pro SP3. Everything works great on this PC.The second PC is running on a Windows Vista - The QUICKVPN client stays at Veryfing Network and Eventually I get an error " The remote gateway is not responding. Do you want to wait?I have disabled Firewall on both PCS for troubleshooting purposes.
I just purchased the RVS4000 v2 to replace an old Netgear FVL328 VPN router which no longer met VPN needs. Despite the poor reviews for the RVS4000, it seems as though Cisco has solved many of the issues with the firmware releases of the last few years. However, I was just reading a post by someone attempting to connect Win 7 machines via VPN tunnel and it was not supported. I'd like to know if this is still an issue, as we stopped using VPN with the former Netgear router, instead relying on teamviewer (but I'd much rather reconfigure a VPN).
We have a newly-purchased RVS4000 v2 with firmware v2.0.2.7. Its intended role is as a gateway between our local network of wired workstations and a Cisco 2800 series Integrated Services Router, which is at the receiving end of our T1 line. It is configured with static IPs on both the LAN and the WAN side. It does NOT serve DHCP for the LAN. Ever since I installed it, I have had repeated complaints from users of Vista and Win7 workstations that they lose internet connectivity about every 20 - 30 minutes or so. The only solution is to unplug the workstation's CAT5 cable, count to 30, and plug it back in. Then everything's hunky dory for another 20 - 30 minutes. Meanwhile, all our Windows XP and Linux workstations enjoy uninterrupted internet access. The router/gateway we replaced (a DLink DIR-130) never had this problem.
I put just got a wrvs 4400N and when I replaced my old linksys router I can't access my network computers anymore. I'm I missing something or do I need to do some kind of setup?
I just bought this router (4400N) at a retail store for $239.00 with a ship date of 12/2009 and the QuickVpn client will NOT work with Windows 7. Furthermore, I do not see any signs of Cisco fixing this.I would be happy if I could use the pptp and the MS Clients. There is no pptp option in the 4400N. All I can do is port forward to my MS server. This does work, but then I cant vpn out....Unfortunately, I will have to return this router for a "STORE CREDIT" . This product should be removed from the shelves and recalled until the client works with Vista and Windows 7 in any way or fashion.Yes, I did install the 1.3 version and I even tried it in compatibility mode for XP?
I am having all sorts of trouble connecting a Cisco RVS4000 to a Cisco ASA5505 over IPSec... I have used the "site to site" vpn wizard, I have a fress "factory reset" on my asa 5505...
what exactly is QuickVPN?Is it a IPSec VPN?Is it a PPTP?Is it a SSLVPN?can I resolve my local hostnames? That means, can I configure a lokal DNS Server?
Recently I sold a rv082 router to a client.He uses a Windows XP environment to dail in using QuickVPN.A week ago an office admin wanted to connect using Windows 7 and it does not work.The client starts do dial and connects but the connection does not work.The admin does not use a router and there is no active software firewall.
The PPTP client from Windows 7 is not working with this router; therefore I would like to try the quickvpn.Is there any paper from Cisco explaining how to setup the RV120W for quickvpn ?
So have a RV042 VPN router that is directly connected to the ethernet port of our comcast cable modem.
If I connect to it using QuickVPN (1.4.2.1) from a PC that is connected using AT&T 3G Network it works fine!
If I connect to it using QuickVPN (1.4.2.1) from a different PC that is connected using home WiFi (linksys wrtxxx) then it fails. In the VPN log all I see is failure messages for ping.
2011/10/22 15:47:28 [WARNING]Failed to ping remote VPN Router!
If I open a regular command prompt and attempt to ping the VPN router it works so not understanding why the QuickVPN is unable to ping.
how I can troubleshoot this further. Makes me think the RV042 config is fine otherwise it would not work on a 3G connection. Something on the home PC or the home network. Not sure what to check.
I've one RV042. I've configured VPN PPTP and it work (I've redirect port 1723 on router1 to rv042). If I can try to use quickVpn, client login and receive error "remote gateway is not responding". I have redirect port 60443 from router1 to rv042. Connection it's this: INTERNET-router1-RV042.
I've deployed a WRVS4400N router at one of my clients, however I'm unable to access resources on his network via DNS. I was hoping to use the router for DNS resolution, however when I connect via VPN, I can only connect to shares via IP address.
I have a Cisco RV120W connected to the internet. I have configured a QuickVPN user on the router, but I cannot connect via QuickVPN no matter on what PC I try (with firewall or without firewal, Windows XP, 7, ...). On the router it says the VPN user is connected, but on the client PC I receive remote gateway not responding. In the logs it says failed to ping remote VPN router. I tried changing all settings I could find on this forum, but the result stays the same (changed port to 60443, deleted all IKE and VPN policies, allowed ping, disabled fragmented packets etc...). None of all the settings seems to get any result.
I got a RSV4000 router here with the latest firmware 1.3.3.5, trying to get the quick VPN client to connect.As far configurations go I have under WAN set the IP, subnetmask, DNS1, DNS2 and gateway. And under VPN I have created a client account with a password, created and then exported the Cert to my client PC.But when I attempt to connect, the QuickVPN software hangs for a few moments at "Connecting" and then fails; when the general error.I'm running this on Windows 7 x64.
Today I purchased a RV042 wired router. I set the VPN connection but when I try to login using QuickVPN, get stucks in "Verifying network". I checked the logs:
2011/09/22 20:43:45 [STATUS]OS Version: Windows 7 2011/09/22 20:43:45 [STATUS]Windows Firewall Domain Profile Settings: ON 2011/09/22 20:43:45 [STATUS]Windows Firewall Private Profile Settings: OFF [Code]...
From my side Im connected to a WRT54G2. VPN Passthrough enabled. Windows 7 Pro x64. No 3rd party AV or firewall. Windows Firewall disabled, also tried enabling it.
From the RV042 side it has a Static IP Address configured. DHCP server enabled. HTTPS enabled. UPnP disabled. L2TP disabled.Firewall disabled. Block WAN Requests disabled.
I have router Linksys RV042 v1.2 with latest firmware Version: 1.3.13.02-tm. And I'm using QuickVPN v 1.4.1.2. I've setup VPN connection with values, below: But every time I'm trying to connect to router by VPN it always popup a window "Remote Gateway not responding".It occurs when I'm trying to connect to VPN behind other router, when I'm connected directly to Internet the connection is established.But I'm connecting to other networks using VPN and it's working properly (behind the same router), so I think it's problem with RV042 configuration but I don't now weher.
