Cisco Routers :: RV042 Firewall With Windows 8
Mar 20, 2013
I recently bought my daughter a refurshed dell 17" laptop which has Windows 8 home edition on it. She also has another smaller laptop with windows 7 on it, an X-box-360 and a PS3 all connected to this RV042 Business router.
I do not have access to the firmware version of the RV042. I believe it was updated in 2011 or early 2012.
We found out that with the RV042 firewall set to ON, she is UNABLE to hit her college website with the new win 8 computer
She CAN go to the college web site with the smaller win 7 computer when the firewall is off or on.
The win 8 computer will allow google searches, but when you click on any of the links, it will not load.With the win 8 computer, facebook will not load, MSN and Hotmail will not load.
Disable firewall, and most (if not all) items that did not work, magically DO work when the RV042 firewall is disabled for the win 8 laptop.
Having issues with with win 8 home edition and the RV042 firewall enabled? Is there a "simple" cure for this, other than slicking the laptop and putting win 7 on it?

I have an RV042 setup for quick vpn access.The remote computer in question is a win 7 64bit. The PC uses McAfee SAAS firewall. This disables the windows firewall.
1. I can connect to the vpn with SAAS disabled and windows firewall enabled.
2. I cannot connect to the vpn with both windows firewall and SAAS disabled.
3. I cannot run SAAS and windows firewall together to check if this would work.
I need to figure out what windows firewall is doing to allow the vpn to connect, and so how do this with windows firewall disabled. I can then leave the windows firewall disabled and enable McAfee SAAS.The message quickvpn provides when it fails to connect is that the remote gateway is not responding. The client logs show that the tunnel had been opened but it was unable to ping.

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
[Code].....

Im able to create a gateway tunnel with two rv042 routers in different locations ( i can see the tunnel connected in the router) but the quick vpn utility is not working , i also tried to use the pptp as server as an alternative( im able to connect using windows connection to the pptp server but whenever I browse any of the four ip's allowed for the pptp server \10.0.0.200-204 it takes me to the documents of the local computer....I attached the configuration for one of the routers it is the same as the other end , just the information is flipped.

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.

this is regarding my RV042. Its firmware version is v4.1.1.01-sp (Dec 6 2011 20:03:18), unchanged from how I received it. I purchased less than a month ago. I have a problem wherein the firewall behavior is not what I expect it to be, where I expect only allowed ports/services to be open to a given private IP from the outside but am finding that all are open to that private IP!
Let me describe the current configuration. I am going to blank out all digits of the public IP addresses when discussing them except for the final digits for security reasons.Router's WAN1 is set up as static, X.X.X.189. This is part of my public IP block. WAN2 is disabled. One-to-One NAT is enabled. Three instances of it are set up. One, for example is 192.0.2.89 (a private IP) mapped to X.X.X.180, a public IP, part of our public block. Forwarding is not enabled. There is no DMZ Host. That is set to 192.0.2.0. Firewall and SPI are Enabled. Access Rules for the firewall are set up in addition to the default rules which are present to Deny all traffic with WAN1 and WAN2 as the source from any source to any destination. This to me means that unless I set up Allow actions, there should be no access from the outside, WAN1. As an example of one of my Allow rules, I have this:
Action: Allow
Service: HTTP
Log: Not log
Source interface: WAN1
Source IP: ANY
Destination IP: Single, 192.0.2.89
Time: Always
My problem: My expectation is that based on the One-to-One NAT setting, the public IP X.X.X.180 is now associated with the private IP 192.0.2.89, but nothing from public to private is allowed unless allowed by the firewall, which is only set to allow HTTP / port 80 to 192.0.2.89. But the behavior is that 192.0.2.89 is, as presently configured, open to everything from the associated public IP, not just port 80, but all ports! It is as if my firewall rules have no impact whatsoever.

Replaced an older RV042 that had damage from lightning. The new RV042 is V03 with firmware 4.0.0.7. This router supports 7 branch offices using site-to-site VPN to other RV042 routers. After connecting the new RV042 at the main office, three of the branch offices had very slow response over the VPN tunnel. I disabled the firewall on the new RV042 and the problem resolved. The three branches with the problem have Windows 7 systems and the other 4 have Windows XP. I confirmed that the Windows firewall was disabled on the Windows 7 systems.I did try leaving the firewall enabled and disabling SPI, but that didn't work. Have to have firewall disabled to resolve the problem. I would not expect the firewall on the main office RV042 to affect VPN tunnel traffic, but apparently it does. Do we need specific access rules to fix the issue. It works fine with firewall disbaled, but I'd be more comfortable with it enabled.

I need to configure a new RV042 behind a SSG5 firewall. All VPN connections is client to gateway.
Firstly, i tried doing a direct connection(bypassing the firewall), the quickVpn status says connect but I can't even ping the rv. I suspect is due to client own ip is 192.168.1.x and the gateway ip is also 192.168.1.10. How do I resolve this such that users can connect anywhere without having to worry about clash of ip?

I have an RV042 which is being used as an interface to an ISP.The WAN address (public) is obtained via PPPoE.The LAN address (also public) is entered manually from an assigned block of public addresses. This is the internet gateway for other publicly-addresses devices like firewalls, VPN devices, etc.
I have an RV042 to play with as will as one in production that I can access.Because the accesses are both through public addresses, I want to use https to access the device. I've generated a number of questions as I'm not sure the behavior is understandable to me and maybe the behavior isn't even consistent.
- If the firewall is Disabled, the https setting is still available. So, presumably https will work with the firewall enabled or disabled? Is that right?
- I take it that the Remote Management setting and port number are associated with the WAN port. For example, can one set Remote Management ON with port 443 and still access via the LAN on port 80? on port 443?
- If Remote Mangement is OFF then I presume that one cannot access the device through the WAN. Yet, that seems to not be the case. I wonder if the public addresses on this device affect this?
Well, I guess we might forget about the Port number and just ponder the following - Sort of a truth table:
Remote OFF
http...........WAN access: NO LAN access: YES
https..........WAN access: NO LAN access: YES
Remote ON
http...........WAN access: YES LAN access: YES
https..........WAN access: YES LAN access: YES
This is what it would seem to me to be but it doesn't seem to work that way.

if possible with the RV042.Primary External IP address uses port forwards for some ports, all okay.I would like to have other external ip addresses assigned to machines on my lan.Basic host multiple web servers, on different IP addresses, using port 80. [code]
From what i am reading, it looks like the RV042 can do this, but I am not real clear what my rules should look like.
I would think my high priority rule for each external IP address would be to deny all traffic first for each machine on the lan.Then create one entry with source 202.x.x.2 port 80 -> 192.168.168.2 ?
How should I set my rules to do this, and what settings should I have on the Nic of the second machine?

I have a new (about 4 months old) RV042 V3 4.0.0.07 firmware that I am trying to use in fail over mode. I have a SOHO and I normally use cable Internet connection. It is quite fast (15 megabit), but not super reliable. I have added DSL (3.3 megabit) which is five nines (supposedly) but not so quick.
I have a Westell 7500 wireless DSL modem located in the basement, where the telephone lines enter the building. This gives me a wireless link to the second floor server room through a wireless router that connects to WAN 2 of the RV042. The cable modem is in the server room and connects directly to the WAN 1 of the RV042. The cable works, but when it goes down, the DSL link comes up but does not allow Internet traffic. The RV042 is set up as a Bridge and I have set up port forwarding to get the cable to work and used similar firewall commands to route the traffic if the router switched over. I suspect that the problem is in the port forwarding (port 80) or the firewall rules(which are pretty simple) because everything looks like it switches over, but it just doesn't work on WAN2.

I'm trying to set up a RV042 to do the following:
1) Block all WAN connections, except for:
2) Allow all port 80 connections, and forward to 10.4.20.60
3) Allow all port 443 connections, and forward to 10.4.20.60
4) Allow port 22 connections from specific IP addresses, and forward to 10.4.20.60
5) After a remote client has connected using Client to Gateway VPN, allow that remote client to access anything on the LAN
I'm able to do #1-4 above, but I can't get #5 to work. Or I can get #5 to work, but can't implement the restrictions I need in #1-4. Attached are some relevant screenshots. I think the problem is that I have Forwarding rules set up that require me to have a firewall rule to Deny All Traffic from WAN1 (unless I'm specifically allowing it). In the Access Rules screenshot, rule #6 is the problem. If I enable it (thereby denying all WAN1 traffic), then VPN clinents can't access anything on the LAN. However if disable this rule, VPN clinents can access anything on the LAN, but the firewall also opens up all outside connections to SSH, since that's set up in the Forwarding rules. I would have thought that once a remote client is connected using client to gateway VPN, then that client is considered to be on the LAN, as far as the firewall is concerned. Thus a firewall rule (like #6) that is specified for WAN1 shouldn't effect remote VPN clients.

I have 2 questions to confirm and/or get direction on how to modify.
1) is there a way to get around the (seemingly arbitrary) class C (slash 24+) subnet restriction for the primary/main IP address for the internal LAN?
(I realize I can setup multiple internal subnets but that also seems to introduce restrictions for port ‘forwarding’ and ‘one-to-one NAT’ use because those features seem to be restricted to the primary/main IP subnet)
2) it seems like all traffic is passed to the host on the internal side of a ‘One-to-One NAT’ regardeless of the firewall rules in place, is that what is be expected?

We have a setup where our e-mail server is hosted in-house.Our network is connected through a RV042 gateway. Port 25 is forwarded to our internal e-mail server.Our smtp service should be limited to receiving incomming connections only from 4 specific ip ranges which I set up in the firewall rules.The reason is that all smtp is managed and protected by an external anti-spam/vires provider.
However it looks like any computer is able to connect to our port 25 and be forwarded to our e-mail server.Does portforwarding overrule firewall rules - ie. you can not limit access with the firewall if you decide to port forward?Is this a "fixable" situation - or is the RV042 not built for handling this setup?

I'm having an issue where our RV042 router is blocking some of our customers from sending us e-mails.I noticed thatCISCO has produced a newer version of the RVO42 V3.0 and has firmware version 4.x. can you upgrade the Linksys RV042 Hardware V 1.2 to the 4.x firmware? I have found a few articles and forums online about otherpeople having the same issue with the RV042 v1 randomly blocking, e-mail but no one ever has a solution to correct the issue.Some people have recommend to roll back to factory default and reconfigure the router as the config may by corrupt.

I recently installed an RV042 v1.1 vpn router (older hardware revision but using the latest available firmware 1.3.12.19-tm) and set up VPN access with the QuickVPN client. QuickVPN requires that the HTTPS setting be enabled under the Firewall options, so I did. I then scanned our static IP with grc.com's ShieldsUP! to check for open or non-stealthed ports and discovered that ports 80 and 443 show as wide open, while port 113 is closed but not stealthed. If I disable the HTTPS setting under Firewall, then ports 80 and 443 become stealthed. Is there any way to use QuickVPN and keep these ports stealthed?

I have a RV042 router on a single WAN and an internal LAN. I have configured port forwarding as follows: HTTP[TCP/80~80]->10.0.0.6HTTPS[TCP/443~443]->10.0.0.6IMAP[TCP/143~143]->10.0.0.5IMAP SSL[TCP/993~993]->10.0.0.5SMTP SSL[TCP/587~587]->10.0.0.5
Everything works just fine when I have the firewall DISABLED. However, when I enable it the behaviour is erratic. 1 out of 10 attempts to connect to ANY port forwarded works. Almost all attempts time out. Notice that this happens even if using only the default firewall rules (which should be bypassed by the port forwarding as I read in other posts).
My second try was to create firewall rules manually, overriding the default ones. I tried adding rules from source WAN1 (where my connection is) to ANY and to SINGLE IP's on every port. Nothing seems to work.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, this is really bugging me. I had to turn the firewall off so we can access our servers from outside the office. This shouldn't have to be done.
Just found out that my firewall is getting LOTS and LOTS of Blocked - SYN Flood entries. I think this is why we are having trouble with the firewall. Could this be the problem? I have no idea where all these SYN packets are coming from since they appear with spoofed IPs or come from different bots all over.

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 have no problem configuring both devices to successfully connect when the juniper firewall isn't in the picture. But due to policy; the RV042 at our main site must sit behind the firewall.
I've got the port forwarding setup but I'm not able to connect. I know I"m missing some configuration on the RV042 but I can't think of it! I've attached a GIF to give an example of both setups.

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?

What exception (inbound/outbound) rules that I need to set in order to use the Gateway to Gateway?

I will attempt to make is simpler this time. I have a gateway to gateway VPN tunnel setup using two RV042 routers. I have been using this gateway for years without any issues. The computers on each side of the tunnel were Windows XP. I also use RealVNC Enterprise Edition on each computer for easy access to their desktops and applications. I have added two new Windows 7 Pro computers on each end of the tunnel.
The problem is with the two new Windows 7 computers. I am able to connect from a new Windows 7 computer to a Windows XP computer located on the opposite side of the tunnel fine with RealVNC. If I connect using the same Windows 7 computer to a new Windows 7 computer on the opposite end of the tunnel the connection will disconnect after a few seconds. I have disabled Symantec Endpoint Protection 11 and even upgraded it to version 11.0.6300. I also installed the most up to date driver for the Intel 82579V network adapter on the ASUS P8P67 Deluxe motherboard.
I attempted to install Cisco's Quick VPN for the RV042 with no luck on that. The certificates that the router uses do not work in the Trusted Root Certification AuthoritiesCertificates folder. So I gave up on that approach. All efforts to possibly by-pass the problem have failed. There is something with the two Windows 7 computers communicating through the tunnel that does to happen with the Windows XP computers.

I have a server behind an rv042 that i would like to block access to on one port from outside in. I have configured the rule as follows:
priority = 1. policy name<name>. enable<checked>. action = deny. service <service to block>. source interface = wan1. sources = any. destination = <public ip address of server>. day <nothing>.
This does not block the intended port from outside. I also changed the destination to be the private ip address and i changed the source interface to LAN and to *. What is the correct syntax to do this?. Port forwarding is enabled. I noticed that there is one entry in the forwarding table for the public ip but it is going to a dead private ip address. Would this have an effect?

laptop and iPhone should get access to the private LAN
- Speedport is connected to ADSL with an dynamic IP, but DynDns is activated
- Speedport uses NAT for forwarding ports 500 and 4500 to RV042
- RV042 should be the VPN-server
- LAN should be completely able to be accessed by the VPN-client (network printer, shared folders on windows, remote access ...)
- VPN connection should use IPSec for high security
- NAT-T must been used because Speedport only forwards UDP/TCP-ports and no protocols
I have some questions:
- how should I configure the IPSec on RV042?
- which VPN client software should I use ( NAT-T an Win7 64bit must be supported ) and how should it been configured?
This scenario with VPN-server behind a router should be a common one, but I can't realise it alone.Normally I work as professional supporter for Cisco SMB (since 3 weeks), but this scenario is new for me and I don't know how to solve this problem.

I have two Internet connections-
1-DSL Modem (WAN1-Internet Port)
2-Cable Modem-Comcast (WAN2-DMZ/Internet Port)
I connected the DSL (WAN1-Internet) port in and the Cisco RV042 was able to get an IP automatically. I tested the connection and it works just fine. Then I connect the Cable Modem-Comcast (WAN2-DMZ/Internet Port) in and I have the RV042 automatically optain IP address. But it just says 0.0.0.0. I've tried release/renew and that does nothing. Also, when I connect the 2nd Internet connection the Internet goes down. The only way it goes back up is when I disable under the PORT MANAGMENT setting.
All the settings have been kept to the default.How can I get the router to obtain an IP address from the Cable Modem-Comcast (WAN2 DMZ/Internet Port).

We have an Cisco RV042. We need to setup a VPN with a business partner who is already using our current IP scheme on another VPN with another client. They have asked us to NAT our IP's from 192.168.25.x to 192.168.245.x
I can't seem to figure this out on this router. I have done it on a Sonicwall and Watchguard, but can't seem to get it to work on the RV042.
I have setup the VPN and the One-To-One NAT. The tunnel will connect (using the 245.x IP as our local IP on the VPN setup), but no traffic will pass through.

Firmware v4.0.4.02 has a nasty bug in the VPN section. If you switch to "IP by DNS Resolved" (yes, it says "Resolved" instead of "Resolution". Gotta love all the Engrish in the RV042!), it will automatically populate the field with "@yourdomain.com". This will cause the VPN to not lookup the proper IP address. Simply deleting the atmark after it populates will fix the problem.
Let's see what happens when we validate a Cisco RV042 webpage:
Errors found while checking this document as HTML 4.01 Transitional!

Apparently one of my two ISPs,CenturyLink, supports 6rd connections to IPv6.
This is supported natively on my Q1000 ActionTec modem, however my modem is in "transparent bridging" mode, so that the RV042 v3 can be the only router.
how to configure the RV042 to operate in this manner.
Per the CenturyLink FAQ: the IPv6 address space is:
2602::0 /24
Most importantly, can I do this WITHOUT buying a new modem.
