How to fix VPN in new "beta" Cingular ROM

this ROM uses internet sharing and when I try to use my Cisco VPN dialer... it craps out and says VPN sub-system not avail. It worked fine before through the modem settings..... any suggestions to get it working??? I am at a loss.
and its kind of driving me crazzy because I really need the VPN (but not willing to give up the all the nice enhancements with the new rom)
MetalSiren
P.S. I removed the auto detect on PIE and when I used internet sharing I can surf the web just fine... I dont get it.

Same issue with other VPN clients. The client is not binding to the PAN adapter. I'm looking to get this to work with Check Point client. I'll let you know what I find.
I'm having the same issue... just tried connecting to VPN using cisco client and it hangs up, I tried switching my to TCP (instead of UDP NAT/PAT) and avoided the hanging issue.
Any idea what the port would be if you want to use TCP??

TCO is right. Your VPN software is not binding to the PAN adpater. I don't know if there is a solution to it.

Cisco VPN now runs as a service.... so I dont think a binding would be needed... would it?

Most client run as a service. They still bind to existing drivers....per Cisco:
you must have Administrator privileges to install the VPN Client on Windows NT and Windows 2000 because these operating systems require Administrator privileges to bind to the existing network drivers or to install new network drivers. The VPN Client software is networking software. You must have Administrator privileges to install it.
The problem is with binding to the driver for the PAN adapter. Still poking around to make this work
Any news on how to get VPN to work with AKU 3.X?? is there a way to install the old wireless modem program, so that we can at least have a work around while a solution is developed...
Where can i download the client cisco VPN for wm6 ?

Junos Pulse only allow to access to the bookmarked web site on the remote site (company). You cannot use Junos Pulse to access to the other PC on the company's LAN. While I can full access to the company's LAN from home's PC.
Is there any app that allow Android phone to fully connect to the company's LAN (using SSL VPN)?

skifta (beta) will act as a server and client. Both devices must be connected to a wifi network and it will not work if you are using the phone itself as the wifi access point.
Rob
seems like DLNA is really a software related.
For any device support wifi, it should be possible to support dlna by adding a protocol layer?

[Q] How does someone outside US watch Hulu and HBO?

Hello:
I live in Canada and don't get to enjoy the Hulu and HBO Go goodness. Total bummer. I would like to use my TF201 to watch this content - not desktop. It appears there are apps for PCs that do something with VPN or IP spoofing. But what options are available to Prime owners? I have DD-WRT flashed on my router so that might open some doors I'm not aware of.
Thanks.
I'm also in the same boat, if you get a good answer, would you pm me? Also if there is a solution I would suggest making the thread a sticky since there are probably lots of other Canadians looking for the same solution....
I use unblock-us here in europe with out any problem
Enviado desde mi GT-I9000 usando Tapatalk
You could utilize the combination of http://www.cryptocloud.com and VPN on your transformer prime. Same as with a PC.
Other than that, probably some other apps out there that have the content. Hulu is pretty strict though, so VPN is probably the best option when you are out of the US.

Does HBO Go work without subscription?
DroidVPN works for US sites. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aed.droidvpn
It might onlybe a free trial though. Best setup would be VPN from router, no?
Catch-22.
If I use VPN for US websites, does that also prevent me from downloading torrents at the same time? That would suck.
I use unblock-us. It works great. I used to use VPN but it definitely slows you down. Because unblock-us just does DNS redirection, it runs at the full speed of your Internet connection. I'm not sure about HBO-Go, but unblock-us has a free trial so you can find out for yourself.
I have been using Unotelly for months and its an excellent service, I paid $19.99 for Gold Package 90 days and I can access netflix usa from uk, hulu from my PS3, PC, PRIME and Apple TV.
I would have posted the link but I can't as I have made less than 8 posts (stupid forum rule).
Just search for Unotelly in google.
Thanks. If I setup VPN in my router settings, do I have to make same changes to PC and Prime? Or will the router changes work for all?

I guess I should have mentioned router too. I flashed DD-WRT recently and thought I could do one master VPN setup from there. However, the Prime doesn't allow for dynamic DNS, if I'm using static local IPs. So VPN must be setup on Prime as well, but router VPN should work with windows desktop if set to assign dynamic IP from router. Does that make sense?
Thanks

unblock-us uses some DNS tricks to get you access to US and UK content. I just set up my router to use the unblock-us DNS server and that propagates to all the devices in my home.
Away from home, I use DNS Changer to switch the DNS to unblock-us.

[REQ] Hack Verizon Fios Mobile app to work over 3G/4G non-WiFi

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.verizon.fiosmobile
It only works via home WiFi as it checks for a Fios IP address.
I tried setting up a VPN on my home computer and then connecting to it via 4G. As soon as I click on watch, the app force closes. Hope someone could make it work over non-WiFi either by VPN or without. :good:

How do you get it working? Mind sharing instruction/steps and any software/apps you got it to work? I tried OpenVPN running on Win7 but the FIOS Mobile didn't work over WIFI outside my home. I also tried native PPTP VPN setup from Win7 and that didn't work as well. I have Note2 running CleanROM ATT SE 3.0. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Did you forward the PPTP port in your router? Try restarting it after making changes.

Thanks so much for your input! I did setup port forwarding for PPTP. I figured the issue now which is BitDefender running on my Win7 blocking the traffic. Now the FIOS Mobile app works over LTE outside my home. Thanks!
Im still having trouble with this. Im using windows vista. Im assuming for it to work if I ever manage to set it up currectly that the pc will need to be on at all times? I have a spare phone that is at home always connected to my router, wonder if I could utilize that.

Yes, you need a PC running all the time as a VPN server. PPTP is the most easiest to get it working but it's blocked by companies all the time so you will never able to connect from your office to home. I use OpenVPN where it supports encryption and you can configure the port you like to use but not just PPTP. Using 443 or any other secured ports are preferred.
Here is a good guide I found to setup OpenVPN.

Correct, the idea is to VPN from your phone back to your home PC to make your phone or the FIOS Mobile app think you are still at home. That's why you need VPN.
You need:
1. Port forwarding from your router to your PC running OpenVPN as VPN server.
2. OpenVPN app installed on your phone.
3. FIOS Mobile app
4. VPN from your phone back to your home, redirect all traffic back to home and obtain an IP from your home.
5. Run FIOS Mobile app. If VPN is working properly, you will see all available live channels, if not, you will only see a few one and there is a warning message telling you that you can view more channels at home.
That's it and enjoy your TV anywhere.
PPTP is much easier because by default it routes all traffic back to your home and the FIOS Mobile app should work fine.

Thanks ill try open vpn. I tried setting up a pptp vpn on my vista laptop but it doesnt seem to work even when the ports are forwared and I turn my norton off. I believe its because my version of vista doesnt support it.

Check Windows Firewall service if it's running as well. Also a quick note to that PPTP uses IP protocol 47 (GRE) as well. Just opening port 1723 will not be enough. GRE is not tcp/udp but it's an IP protocol. Just FYI.
Windows Vista supports PPTP server as well.

Hmm I figured maybe since my version of vista doesnt support remote desktop that maybr it aldo doesnt support VPN. I have a Verizon Fios router and cant find any options about GRE, ill have to investigate further.

I have Verizon FIOS router as well and it's a pretty old one.
It should be at Firewall Settings --> Port Forwarding --> Find or type the IP of your PC and select "Application to forward" --> pick PPTP
Save, and you should see a rule something like this.
PPTP
TCP Any -> 1723
GRE
Thanks! I am finally able to connect to the VPN! The only problem now is that even though I'm connect to it I can not access the internet at all from my phone when its connect to the VPN server. It shows on windows that I'm connect to it but if I right click it and view status it shows IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity: Not Connected. It only shows Media State: Connected. Any ideas?

PPTP is very unstable especially using Windows. I prefer using OpenVPN as service. It works for me all the time.
Any takers? :good:
Doing the VPN setup as well
I plan on using a DD-WRT router (Running OpenVPN) to connect with no PC required & one at my office so i can use the Samsung Smart TV FIOS app at work on the 50".
I will keep yall posted!

P.S. Can someone just hack the app & add a field in the app to add your home ip address/ mock the fake address to the app?
Yes, it should be pretty simple to hack the app. Surprised no one has done it. I'll offer a $10 bounty. :cyclops:
