[Q] File Sharing over VPN - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can establish a VPN connection between my Atrix and my home computer. Over WiFi, I can access my SMB shares on my Atrix. But I can't access my SMB shares through the VPN connection! Has anyone had success with this setup?

ATT 8525 Internet Sharing And Cisco VPN

Hi
I update my cingular / att 8525 with the new rom that replace the wireless modem with the internet sharing. The internet sharing worked fine.
Some time when my home high speed internet goes slowly, I use my 8525 as a wireless modem to connect to my work computer via Cisco VPN version 3.66.
After upgrade to the new rom that uses internet sharing, I cannot connect to my work computer as before the upgrade. As soon I run the VPN Client, and the VPN do all registration, I not longer have internet access. When I run Remote Desktop to connect to my work computer, I got an error that I can't find the computer. If I open the internet explorer (IE) to go any site, the IE can not find any size. If I disconnect the VPN connection and repair the internet sharing I can browse the internet.
I contact the HTC support with not result. I want to know if someone that has not upgrade the rom yet, can send me the wmodem files from the windoew directory to see if I can get the wireless modem working or if some one has any correction options.
Regards,
Gilberto Fres
The latest Cisco VPN client (v5.0) fixes this.
I installed the Cisco VPN version 5 in work computer to test. I disconnect from the network and create a bluetooth connection between my 8525 and the PC. I got internet access thru the phone. I launch the VPN and the VPN connect to the network. I check for internet access and was still there. The only problem is that when I ping any computer in my work network, I dont get any reply. I still can't connect to any computer in my work network, but this time with this new version of VPN, I'm not losing the internet.
If posible to get the WModem software that is the wireless modem instead of internet sharing?

Sounds like a bug that was in the Beta v5.0 client. Are you connecting to a Cisco VPN concentrator? I'm using a 3020 w/o issues on the production client (has official Vista support).
My laptop runs Windows XP however..

Possibly because DNS isn't working thru the VPN client? Can you ping or RDP by IP address?
Or, do the hard coded proxy settings affect VPN? Have you tried disabling the proxy?
Hi
The version of the Cisco VPN is 5.0.00.0340. I'm connecting to cisco 3000 server. If I trying to ping any computer on my work network after the VPN connect, gave me time out all the time, but I could connect to the internet using the Internet Explorer.
Playing with this yerterday, in the control > network connection, I pick the property of the connection made by the 8525. I went to the properties. In the Advanced tab I click the option "Internet Connection Sharing" to see if the VPN work and I received a message that the connection to the internet can be lost. I lost the connection and went back to the property dialog box. When I click the Advanced tab, the all "Internet Connection Sharing" section not longer showing up in the "Advanced" tab.
Right now the phone connect to the PC, but I don't have any internet in the PC. How I can disabled this "Intenet Connection Sharing" when this doesn't show up in the Advanced tab of the network connection properties?

I've got the AKU3.5 ROM loaded on my 8525 but I've not tested the Cisco VPN client with it. My responses have been based on my TyTN which runs my WM6 ROM. I'll pair up my laptop with the 8525 later today and test.

Did you test your 8525 with the Cisco VPN Client?
Gilberto
Forgot about it.... I'll be home in 2hrs & will test then.
also: are you tethering via USB or Bluetooth?
Testing complete. Tethered my laptop to my 8525 using USB. Connected to my 3020 concentrator with Cisco VPN client v5.0.00.340, logged in and successfully browsed to our internal-only (RFC1918 CIDR block) intranet portal site.
I am using IPSec over UDP (NAT/PAT).
Looks like the 8525 Internet Sharing/v5.0.00.340 client combination works for me.
Sleuth255
Our company concentrator is the 3000 not the 3020 that you use for the test.
Look like I have to wait to HTC release the update to WM6 and lockely if the will include the DUN package in the update.
I got the VPN connect but can't sent and received any package thru the VPN. I still have internet browsing capability, but I can't ping any computer in my work network.
Thank Sleuth255 for your information.
Gilberto
are you also IPSec over UDP?
hey all, does anyone know if there are any free/opensource vpn client WM5/WM6 software? I've tried Antha and Bluefire VPN. I had great success with Bluefire VPN but a license costs $79. Antha was just a bit too unstable.
Any recommendations?
I'm not aware of any that can do 3DES other than the two you mentioned. Let me know if you find one!
Sleuth255
Yes is IPSec over UDP.
Gilberto
can your shar VPN software?

[Q] Want to share PC DSL connection with my Vibrant. How can I do it?

Hi Guys. Need a little help.
Scenario: I have a wired ADSL connection in my home for internet. I have Windows 7 on my PC installed. I have a TP-Link TL-WN321G WiFi card in my PC as well.
Now, I want to share my PC's ADSL connection with my Vibrant through my WiFi card.
So far, I have failed to achieve it. I have tried doing it the TP-Link way by establishing a Soft AP through a software provided by them, but no success. I have tried connectify, no luck here either. My vibrant detects the network but never connects to it...
Any help, what so ever will be really appreciated...
Easiest way, get a $30 router at your local store. Will save you a headache. Otherwise bridge your wired and wireless connection using windows.

Well what you will need to do is allow ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) on the wired NIC card and allow other users to share the connection. It should DHCP the wired NIC and assign your wireless card an IP address like 192.168.137.1 and Subnet of 255.255.255.0.
Actually I don't want to buy a new router, want to use my WiFi card. And it is possible through it, so I think I should not spend money on a router...
I have tried everything... ICS is not working... Connectify is not working either...
There is some way of doing it through Adhoc network, I read somewhere but I have also read that Adhoc network is not supported in Android...
If someone can help, that would be great...
Odd because I'm doing ICS via Windows 7 and mine works perfectly..
***Edit...you might have to add in the default gateway ip and primary dns server ip on the wireless card for it to look for your wired NIC
just right click on your wired NIC and go to status and then details
Hmm... I am going to try this but do I share the internet with my WiFi card or the Virtual WiFi Miniport?
You share the wired NIC "allow other users to connect " it will act as your DHCP server and assign an address to your wireless card
Nothing is happening for me...
My Vibrant detects the WiFi AP but does not connect to it... It evens show the signal strength to be "Excellent" but does not connect to it...
Man... Its really frustrating when you can not get something to work...
So it just wont connect period?? Not even to network? Or will it connect and just no internet.... Hmmmmm
It just wont connect. Period...
Thanks for your willingness to help though...
Google "set up adhoc windows 7" to get your wireless set up properly, then should be easy. Keep it simple at first. Broadcast ssid and one you will recognize, and no password to eliminate any problems. Once configured and workinggo back and set up a password.

I have tried this Ad Hoc connection as well but I have read somewhere that Android does not support Ad Hoc connection. If there is some way around, please do tell me...
Finally... Got it working guys...

Followed it and it just worked...
Man, I am relieved...

[Q] need help with internet connection sharing from laptop

I've been trying to share internet connection from my laptop with gtab using "connectify". The wifi setting on the gtab actually says "connected" but I have no internet access I think it's because of ip config or something but i don't know how to fix it. Any idea what's going on?

I would assume your laptop is creating a peer-to-peer or AdHoc network that Android can struggle with. There are no less than a dozen threads on this here. Some fixes for connecting to AdHoc but my experience has been that you will need a Infrastructure network to connect to with no issues. Use the search field upper right.

PPTP VPN connection issue over 3G

I am having problem connecting VPN over AT&T's 3G network. It will log-in and get IP address from VPN server. VPN server shows it is logged in. Connection stays connected.
However, I cannot access any resources over VPN connection. Cannot even get into router. (I'm running VPN server in my router running DD-WRT).
Tried pinging router from terminal, no response.
It works perfectly when I'm connected using Wi-Fi.
Any idea what is the problem and how to fix?
No one using VPN??

Android VPN + Tethering

I use Android's native PPTP VPN connection to manage computers at my office or at my home if I need to do something when I'm not physically present.. If my phone is connected to the VPN however, and I tether my internet connection to my tablet, I can't seem to get access unless I make a second VPN connection from my tablet.
Does anybody know how to share VPN access to tethered devices? I'm sure its possible, just not sure how to make it happen...
possible solution see cross-link
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33749904&postcount=10
And why are you trying to do that?
I haven't tested vpn "sharing" , but it is simple to vpn with the tethered device to the vpn server. Wifi tether passes the vpn traffic fine.
I will poke around with it sometime.
