Well, DMZ didn’t work (no change in results). At home I have FIOS and see posts online where people have experienced problems with VPNs. So I may have to hit a friend’s house and test.

What does your network topography look like? If there's nothing in the VPN logs, then I call to question if your packets are even getting there... As a quick test, you can also configure your client PC into the local router's DMZ and try again. If you get further along (i.e. VPN log entries on the FVS), then that may indicate the gateway/router you're using to connecting to the internet might not be configured for VPN passthrough or port forwarding/triggering for ports 500 and 4500 might need some consideration. -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Morrow <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Fri, Jul 30, 2010 3:50 pm Subject: [vpn-help] Shrew Cleint with Netgear FVX538 So I am pretty knowledgable when it comes to networking, dhcp, dns, etc, etc. But not VPNs. I followed the procedure for Netgear VPNs to the T (except for IPs and encryption algorithm) and I don’t believe I am getting anywhere fast. The local Shrew Client tries to contact the VPN gateway, and it looks like there is on response after the initial handshakes: 10/07/30 15:31:32 >= : message 00000000 10/07/30 15:31:37 -> : resend 1 phase1 packet(s) 192.168.1.2:500 -> GATEWAYIPWUZHERE:500 10/07/30 15:31:42 -> : resend 1 phase1 packet(s) 192.168.1.2:500 -> GATEWAYIPWUZHERE:500 10/07/30 15:31:47 -> : resend 1 phase1 packet(s) 192.168.1.2:500 -> GATEWAYIPWUZHERE:500 10/07/30 15:31:52 ii : resend limit exceeded for phase1 exchange 10/07/30 15:31:52 ii : phase1 removal before expire time On the VPN side (Netgear FVX538): Nothing in the VPN log. I’m lost. A good next step to try would be appreciated.
