Re: VNC connection through VPN and wireless problem

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. Good
luck!

  What works:
 
  Cable modem 
  linksys wireless router 
  hardwired ethernet from back of wireless router to laptop 
  cisco vpn client to my office works 
  vnc to work desktop - all ok, no problems
 
  What the problem is:
  Same Cable modem 
  Same linksys wireless router 
  Wireless nw card in laptop  ( works fine to standard sites )
  cisco vpn client to my office  ( works, connects, no problem )
  vnc to work desktop - failure to connect
 
  At this point everything is at default, true I did try some things but were
  merely guesses. Everything has been reinstalled so everyting is at the default 
  state
  and hardwired all is well.
 
  I am running cisco client 3.6.3 and the wireless router and card are both linksys 
  G series
 
  Any thoughts

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.
