I am trying to establish a VPN connection to my home servers.
The device is connecting to a Microsoft RRAS server.
I have been successful in establishing a VPN connection both over PPTP and L2TP (using a pre-shared key) to my server.
I know that it is successful, because I use VxTools and check out my IP info. I am also able to ping the RRAS server and other servers on my internal network successfully. I CAN use Windows Mobile desktop over the VPN by both IP and local name (e.g. SERVER01). So I am 100% positive a VPN is established and that traffic flows over it.
The problem lies in when I actually try to do anything else within the VPN.
If I try to map a drive using either Resco or the HTC network plugin, I am unable to browse to any machines. I am also not able to type the names in directly to connect. In addition if I use PIE to access a webpage internally it tells me it can't connect.
I try by FQDN and by IP. I have set up exceptions to my internal FQDN in the network settings...nothing seems to work.
But, there is no point in having the VPN if I can't actually access any resources!
any ideas?
thanks
p.s. This has been tried on both the stock 6.1 AT&T and HTC ROMS following a clean flash.
just curious if you have found a solution. My RDP will not even connect over the VPN, i think this is bescause I have a newer version of RDP. But i can ping across the vpn just fine. from internal Machines and to them. This is annoying.
I have 300+ GB of music I want to listen to over this thing.
Hey all.
I've tried searching Google and the XDA, but I still can't seem to get my remote desktop to work.
I'm using the AT&T version (Fuze) and Windows XP Media Center Edition. I went through the steps on my PC to enable and allow RD in the system and firewall sections, and still keep getting the "Cannot connect" error message when I try and use RD on my Diamond. Any advice?
All stock ROM, progs, etc.
Thanks!
If it's anything like T-Mobile in the UK, Remote Desktop may be something blocked at the carrier.
I managed to get around it using an SSH tunnel. It's not actually as difficult as it sounds I describe what I did in this post:

Before that I'd try connecting to remote desktop through a wifi connection which you know allows RDP, just to make sure your cellular network is at fault. If it is, you could try complaining - some people on T-Mobile UK have had RDP enabled on their "standard" data contracts which aren't technically supposed to have it from what I have heard.
Hey, thanks for the tips.
I actually tried it on a WiFi connection and got the same result.
I'll try looking into your other suggestion, but aside from that, are there any other troubleshooting options? Thanks all!
See if another computer can remote into your computer. It might not be an issue with your phone.
I was able to connect using another computer in the house...they're not networked but using the same internet connection. Gonna try and have my cousin connect to my comp from his house when he gets home...but so far it doesn't seem like it's my computer...
Still need assistance.
Thanks!
try it without the router. u probably need port fordwarding.
You will also need either a static ip address from your isp or setup dynamic dns resolution (i.e dyndns.org). If you have a dynamic ip address the ip address of your router is issued by your isp every time you connect(not neccessarily a different ip every time, but it might be). As mentioned above you will aslo need to setup port forwarding on your router for port 3389 (default rdp port) to the ip address of the machine you want to remote onto.
Forgive me but...how do you set all that up?
I appreciate all the assistance thus far!
I couldnt get mine to work, so I forward port 5900 on my PC and use RealVNC (free/shareware)
Hello:
I'm also having problems getting my remote desktop to work. Been trying to connect since I picked up my Fuze on the 11th.
I have three different computers that I can successfully administer via my desktop. I've tried using 3G to connect, no success. I've tried using Wi-fi to connect, no success. I've used local computer names, IP addresses, properly forwarded ports --
It has to be a setting I'm missing on the phone. Any ideas? TIA
(and yes, I'm sorry, I know this is the Diamond forum, it's just the only thread I've found)
I have a rooted N1 with cyanogen 5.0.4.1 on it.
I'm studying abroad this semester, and the university I'm at seems to have done everything they could to prevent me from connecting my phone to the internet on their network.
There is a wireless network, but it doesn't reach my room, and there's a proxy; I haven't been able to get any of the various proxy apps to work with it, at all. On a somewhat related note, since moving to cyanogen I'm not able to connect to that network anymore (wpa enterprise, tls/pap/user+pass). No real loss, since it didn't work as I couldn't get the proxy going.
The rooms have ethernet, with a static IP and mac filtering, and of course the same proxy. In addition, on the wired network in the rooms you have to connect to a vpn in order get anything other than the school's intranet
With cyanogen's rom, I have been able to connect my phone to my computer's ad-hoc network by giving it the parameters (IP, gateway, netmask, dns), that were provided to me, but I can't download anything. My only guess as to why that's not working is their static IP/mac filtering combo is not playing nicely.
I haven't ever delved very deeply into networking type stuff such as proxies, ssh tunnels, etc, so these two ideas of mine could be completely unworkable, but what I've been able to come up with is:
1. Is there a way to have my laptop keep handling all the proxy/ip/vpn nonsense, and just route http data to and from my phone? I've never dealt with ssh or anything of that sort, but I run linux so it should be pretty trivial to get it set up on the laptop's side of the equation.
2. Failing that, I'm allowed to have 3 devices with 3 different mac addresses, each of which is given a separate IP address, so I give the people in charge of the network the mac address for my phone and get an IP address for it. Then, connect to my laptop's ad-hoc network, which is on IP #1, and go to the advanced wifi settings on my N1 and set up a static IP with IP #2. Does that work, at all? This of course doesn't account for the vpn at all, but if it does in fact work I'd then move on to that.
What a ****ing brain-buster. Goodluck!
As an update, I can use cyanogen's included tethering ability, in conjunction with ConnectBot, to ssh from my phone to my computer (got that working after a bit of work, and learned something new). However, when I try to set up port forwarding in ConnectBot, it doesn't work; I don't know which ones to forward, whether to choose local or remote, and if I try to forward something below 1024 it gives me an error because of that. Does anybody know what ports I need to forward, and how to do that properly with ConnectBot?
Dears,
I just finished to setup my laptop to be an AccessPoint for my nexus.
I did this creating a new ad-hoc wireless connection.
It works! ...for browsing websites
does not work for market or app web connection...
I configured proxy settings to enable websites browsing.
If I try change proxy settings on my phone, obviously websites browsing stops.
Note I'm inside an office network now and I cannot change or control about network setups.
any idea why android market does not work with my setup?
does market need some "special ports" opened?
help me please....
Just download connectify. It's a program that makes your computer a WiFi hotspot. I use it to get internet on my x 10, and it works flawlessly

eh......
I already tried... bit my network card is not supported by connectify...
The same with VirtualRouter.
The only way I has some success is as described before (ad-hoc network).
Please help me with that market issue...
Could it be that it's blocked by your company? Like can you go to youtube on your pc?
Like i understand you are using proxy to connect the net so http is allowd and all the others are closed.
correct: proxy is only working for http access.
I have troubles also with google sync, gmail, youtube, market etc...
I'm only able to surf the web via browser.
Note that wih my notebook I have access to all youtube... so cannot understand why it works whit notebook but does not work with nexusOne...
maybe notebook and nexus use different protocols or services that are closed by the proxy.
Any idea to make my ad-hoc network fully open?
I'm having trouble getting connectify to work... it loads up and runs fine on my Win7 x64 laptop, but when I try to connect with the N1 it appears to be eternally stuck at the "Obtaining IP Address" stage before it finally times out and the network state is reported as "Unsuccessful". I've tried both pulling the IP from DHCP and manually specifying a static IP address on the correct network, and I have attempted running both Android 2.1 and 2.2.
Even when specifying a static IP, I still get the "Obtaining address..." status before it fails out.
Any thoughts?
for me too: both with ad-hoc connection, Connectify (@home) or VirtualRouter (@home) I have same issue than you.
Sometimes n1 connects the wireless network with no problems, other times it dont connect the network... Dont know the reason. Only I saw that if you delete the ad-hoc network and create a new one it works... It's boring, I know... but works..
also I saw that @home connecting in same mode than in office I was able to navigate market, youtube and all other programs that need an internet connection .
This to confirm that the problem I'm having @office is caused by some LAN restrictions (filters, firewalls and something like this)
Cool, I'll give that a go when I get off work I suppose. I've only got about another week or so here in Afghanistan, but while I'm here the only accessible internet is a wifi access point that passes through a fairly restrictive firewall/proxy before hitting the satellite internet. I'm able to bypass the firewall and proxy if I use an ethernet connection on my laptop (luck of the draw: my room in the tent is the one with all the networking gear ), and was hoping I could use this Connectify or VirtualRouter business to then extend that internet offering to my N1. So far, no luck. Maybe I'll fight with it some more tonight and get somewhere with it.
Off-topic: How's Padova this time of year? I spent about three months up in Aviano back at the end of last summer and fall... absolutely gorgeous country.
Maybe is useful for you to knwo ho I'm able to surf web using browser on my N1 (using win7).
3 modes:
- ad-hoc network (pc-to-n1) directly from network control center of win7
- connectify (using a virtual access point)
- virtual router (same as connectify)
@ home: LAN without filters or restrictions. I'm able to surf web, use youtube player, market etc.
@ work: LAN with filters and restrictions. I'm able to surf web only.
These are my tests. I hope you will have more luck than me.
OT: Padova is great in this period. Weather is hot (25-28°), summer is starting. Unfortunatly in these days we have some rain but our "sunny season" is already started.
I know Aviano, there's a US militay base. Are you a soldier? I'm a fan of the "soldiers world" (I played for a long time a free online game called "America's Army" )
Sorry for OT

Thanks for the info
And no, I'm not a soldier, but I work as a civilian geek/technician/engineer for a US defense contractor that builds air/battlespace control systems - like a glorified Air Traffic Control. I get sent for a few months at a time to different locations that we have our systems to support the soldiers and airmen who use them.
Needless to say, Aviano has been the best assignment yet

If you can use everything @home this isn't a fault of your setup. everything gets blocked by the proxy server. if you really want it you have to talk with the administrator, i really doubt that he will do changes to please you.
for now i think it's impossible to use them.
ok... thanks for the bad news...

I have the same problem (ok, with a Desire). No IP obtained. OS is Win7/64 too.
Did you have any success in the meantime?
I think the market actually uses https:// ... is that set up as well? Even if it is, the phone might reject it because of redirecting certificate issues...
You're probably better off setting up a VPN on your home machine, or some server outside the network. Then VPN to that on your phone for open access (Of course u can buy vpn accounts from various companies too.)
What kind of proxy is it? Socks? http? remember most don't support UDP, and may only support port http or https.
How do you get N1 to see ad-hoc wifi? I tried but wasn't able to using stock froyo...
Heeeeeeeeeelp please!!!
i have installed connectify and the virtual router on my win7 laptop.
i can connect to the new wireless networks created by these softwares but I can't browse the web (no data is received in my Nexus one)
can you please help me?
I have stock froyo FRF91 on my Nexus one
reverse tether
nokia 5000 how to reverse tethering
connectify does not transmit internet signal from PC to CP
My dad's workplace uses a F5 Firepass SSL-VPN. He wants to be able to tether his laptop using his captivate, then be able to connect to the VPN so he can work remotely from our cabin. His laptop tethers just fine to his phone, but when he tries to log into the VPN, it hangs for a bit and then fails. Does anybody know how to connect to these kinds of VPNs while tethered?
I have similar problem, using the stock vpn app i cant never get connected to the server, i have check everything is ok, in the desktop or iphone works great. now i'm trying to the with openvpn i get conected but i cant send all my traffic trought the vpn tunnel.
