I have a netbook running Win7 Starter Edition and I'm trying to

Using v2.1.6 I could not establish a tunnel. The "Network" tab in the
Shrew client said 'Established - 0' and my router log only showed the
tunnel getting to phase 1 and then it would stall. I've upgraded to
v2.1.7 beta and now it appears I can create the tunnel (Shrew client
says 'Established - 1', router log shows tunnel successfully created,
and the tunnel and client show up in the router's active VPN list.
However, I cannot ping or access any addresses through the VPN.

If I try to ping any addresses through the tunnel and use Wireshark
to monitor the tunnel interface, it shows standard arp "who has"
requests but the response is always the same. Also, after the arp
request there aren't any ICMP packets. Here's what's shown in my arp
cache: C:\>arp -a Interface: 192.168.x.1 --- 0x10 Internet Address
Physical Address Type 192.168.y.1 bb-bb-bb-bb-bb-00
dynamic 192.168.y.10 bb-bb-bb-bb-bb-00 dynamic
192.168.y.100 bb-bb-bb-bb-bb-00 dynamic . .

Is this behavior correct or is something not setup correctly?



Hi Matt,

From looking at the debug log output you provided, a phase2 SA is being established and ESP packets are being sent to your gateway. These are packets that have been tunneled/encrypted by the VPN Client. Do you see any other packets being generated on the virtual network interface, it could be DNS packets or something similar. I'm not sure why you can't see the ICMP traffic, but something is definitely trying to traverse the tunnel.
