As far as it being an ISP issue, I work for the ISP I use. ;-) I haven't heard of any other issues from our support department involving pptp connections, although with various hardware and etc, no one else may experience the same problem I am.
I'd say the firewall I'm behind at the remote location may be causing the issue, but it doesn't boot me out of the other connection so I don't believe that would be the problem. The buggy NAT implementation seems the most likely culprit. What would be my best route at troubleshooting the pfsense NAT I'm running. My network setup is fairly simple, only a few internal nat'd machines and just a few firewall rules with no traffic shaping.

I'd also look at a buggy NAT implementation or some other issue with the firewall your client is behind. Tons of firewalls seem to have various issues in dealing with GRE and break it in various ways. Even though it's not an issue with one PPTP connection, this could still easily be the case for several reasons. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
