Re: VNC connection through VPN and wireless problem
Greg: Heya. Sorry for the late reply. Here's another possibility: different Ethernet NIC's can come with different MTU sizes. Due to the IPSEC wrapping of your packets in a VPN, an otherwise functional MTU size can be exceeded, and packets get fragmented leading to uncertain behavior in VPN settings. Which is all to say...try reducing the MTU size on your wireless NIC to that if your wired NIC and see if it helps.

RE: VNC connection through VPN and wireless problem
"failure to connect" could mean that the port isn't reachable. Could you ping your work desktop from your laptop? Make sure your VPN client is also encrypting your wireless connection. > -Message d'origine- > De : Greg E.
