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.
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...

connectify does not transmit internet signal from PC to CP
Hi,
I have an interesting problem. I am in Dubai, where the ISP (Etisalat) provides Internet via Fiber-optic cables to my residence. They have this modem which I connect my wi-fi router to.
After connecting to my wi-fi router the usual way, I have to dial-in via a Broadband PPPoE connection, where I provide the ISP username and password. I have to do this every time I connect to the Internet.
Unfortunately, this means I cannot connect my Nexus One to the Internet This is because I am not aware of any app/functionality that enables PPPoE dialing on Android.
I had installed Connectify for Windows 7 that enabled me to share my authenticated Internet connection with other devices (and hence my N1). However, after FR83, this seems to have stopped working as well, for some reason. It is extremely difficult to connect to the shared Wifi created by Connectify, and even after connecting, I cannot browse the Internet.
I have already tried setting a static IP address for the N1, but this did not resolve the issue.
Can anybody offer guidance, ideas? Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
PI
Get a router, set the router to connect through PPPoE and every device that connects to the wireless router will work.
Thanks, but I wouldn't want to spend more money...

Thanks, but I wouldn't want to spend more money on another router. I have a Wi-fi router already, but I don't know if it has the ability to connect via PPPoE. It's a 3COM 3CRWDR200A-75.
Will try and research if I can enable PPPoE via this somehow.
Cheers,

More accurately, it is a router that happens to have a wireless interface. Most home wireless routers usually have the functionality of a switch as well (that is, providing multiple connections to the same local network), but they usually include routing capability to move traffic from your local area network to the Internet.
Hi guys. I have not access to market because of my region. Can any body get me the WIFI PPPoE ?

Hi,
I have just upgraded mi N1 to froyo with the official update.
I tried the tethering function and it works just fine except for the fact that i am not able to use the cisco VPN client from my laptop when connecting to the internet via tethering.
The VPN session works up to when it is already connected without any error but then it doesn't transfer any data.
Is the traffic filtered somehow? Did anyone find a workaround for this problem?
Thanks in advance
Gas
I was using CiscoVPN and now Juniper through N1's tethering, never a problem.
Check the connection - check that you have DNS servers and you can access public servers using ping, etc. From the laptop, I mean.
I finally got it to work.
The strange part is that it works when using WIFI tethering but fails when using USB tehtering.
Gas
Same here.
I plug in my phone and turn on tethering. I can surf the web. I logon to VPN and then it wont let me connect to anything on the VPN. I decided to try turning the phone in to a hotspot, this works, i get connected. I VPN in and poof! i can hit all the servers. ... anyone else run in to something like this.
USB Tether + VPN and I cant hit anything on VPN
Wifi Hotspot + VPN and everything works as it should

Cisco VPN software
Thanks
I had the same problem using USB tethering.
I found a solution:
- change at the Cisco client software the transport to "IPSec over TCP"
This worked for me fine.
I had the same problem with Hotspot and Cicso VPN, and the change in transport protocol to "IPSec over TCP" fixed it. Thanks.
Is there any way to connect to internet via VPN (PPTP, L2TP-IPSec, or OPENvpn). Is it possible to install the necessary system/binary stuff to be able to so through adb, ssh, or telnet. I am connected to the internet through my phones hotspot, my laptop is connected to VPN. And when I am not connected to VPN for any reason I can make the chrome useragent changer to appear as an ubuntu or linux machine running chrome. When the content being requested is local on laptop plex media server and requesting it through patched plex it can play just fine, and that is with the laptop connected to internet via VPN, when I try to play something on plex that is streaming it just hangs like it wants to play but doesn't load. when I attempt to play streaming media via AVIA I get sent to the 4gLTE ISP provider (tmobile) upsell page that appears when they sense that you have something connected via wifi hotspot tether. I think that when plex is hanging at the loading page that it is also getting the upsell page but it just doesn't show up on the screen. If it is possible to make the CC connect through VPN or change the user agent of the chromecast I should be able to bypass the upsell page that is saying I can't connect via wifi tethered devices. This makes me think that the dns servers I have set in eureka web panel may not actually be making their connection through the servers from openNIC that I set it to use. The chromecast can communicate with my laptop when it is connected to VPN simultaneously without a problem.
Is it possible to innstall the privateinternetaccess PIA VPN app on the chromecast and add it to the eurekarom whitelist? or any openvpn app will work so other people with different vpn providers can also connect with the correct configuration files in place. Or does anyone know how to make the chromecast go through VPN that is active on phone, like the way a router that is connected to VPN makes all of the clients connected to it go through the VPN without the need to sign in to the vpn on each device.
Here's how I did it !!!
I'm also tethering via T-Mobile & ran into the same problem as you !!! What I've done before the 15250 update was run an app named Network Spoofer downloaded from blackmart app // I turned hotspot on my phone & my Asus Tf700 was connected to the WiFi created by t mobile I used VPN unlimited & while its connected // I ran the Network spoofer app & I either use adblock *** or redirect traffic through phone - this being the most often used option !!! After selecting redirect // I selected default gateway // I then chose the IP address that my chromescast is using // the chromecast name under IP address sometimes doesn't show up // so you'll have to know what your chrome cast IP address is // you can find this by using the chrome cast app !!!
The network spoofer app, found on sourceforge doesn't function correctly on nexus 4, at least not for me.
I ran into the same problem. Plex Media Server would not work on T-mobile tethering. I tried Network Spoofer and used Redirect Traffic Through Phone and give it the ip address of the the laptop that hosts Plex Media Server, it didn't work. Even the browser on this laptop would bring up the T-mobile upsell page. It seems this feature would simply let everything pass through the phone.
Any other suggestion?
Here's my setup
An LG phone with T-mobile LTE attached to my router via USB tethering. The router then serves every device, wired and wireless, on my network. Roku and all PCs works fine if I change the User Agent of the browser. Only the Plex Media Server would cause T-mobile to bill the traffic against the limited 2.5G tethering, the rest got billed against the unlimited data plan.

Hi smartymcfly,
Thanks for the info. It seems step 3 above is to turn the laptop into a wifi hotspot. However, In my case the laptop is already visible throughout the whole network because it's attached to the router via an ethernet cable. The router gets its internet from the USB port attached to a smart phone and all devices attached to the router.
Based on your instruction (step 2) is to connect to a vpn. I will try to run Hotspot Shield on the laptop to see if that helps. My router is an Asus wl-520gu running DD-WRT so I think it has builtin VPN server, I will try that too.
By the way, did you get your Plex Server to work without T-mobile upsell? Thanks

This might not be directly related but here is a little something I learned....
I have PMS with a VPN. There are a few things you need to set up before you can get it to work. (Also works for vudu)
Basically, the VPN won't work because it needs access to a few IP addresses that it can communicate directly with the myplex servers but not through the VPN. I did tons of packet sniffing to figure these IP addresses out..
What happens is, if you are connected to the VPN, ALL outgoing traffic goes through the VPN and the Plex servers don't understand where that traffic came from and will block it. If your server is reported as being at one address and the traffic comes from another, that makes it look like something is spoofed.
If you have a firewall or VPN that can separate your traffic, I have the IP addresses for you.
The good thing is, the IP address ranges that you'll input, don't effect how your channels are retrieved; meaning that you can still get international channel content from channels like BBC iPlayer or CBC.
I had to use a very special feature on my firewall called ISP Redundancy and route traffic to certain IP ranges directly to the source. This also helped with Verizon FiOS throttling stuff like Netflix and Vudu.

Hi abuttino,
Thanks for the info. I'm ordering a new, more powerful router and should have it by tomorrow. I will be using DD-WRT firmware on this new router. DD-WRT should have builtin VPN and firewall. I've been reading on the firewall features, and it seems that it allows routing traffic both ways based on ip addresses. What I'm not sure about his whether or not the routing is running inline with the vpn or can be set to run parrallel so we can have some traiffcs encrypted and some are not.
So for the exception to the IP addresses that need unencrypted communications, do they require both ways (from internet to Plex and from Plex to internet) or just one way?
They need to run in both directions. I'll give you the IP ranges when you are ready, but be prepared to run wireshark to sniff out more IP addresses if myPlex doesn't connect

Hi abuttino,
I bought an Asus RT-N66U thinking I was able to use Android usb tethering (Asus said that it could) but I haven't been able to get it going. I must be able to use this router with usb tethering first before configuring VPN. Thank you. I will keep you posted.

Sorry for the untimely response...
in step 2, in your case you would need to connect your router to VPN
or
Connect computer to VPN, create hotspot and have your chromecast connect to newly created hotspot but this way would defeat the need to use the router. This the way I have it. There is also an app named klink that may allow you to connect phone to VPN and push all traffic through VPN but I do not know how well it works or if it will work with chromecast.

You may need to update the routers firmware. Or install one that will allow it.
http://support.asus.com/FAQ/Detail....DB9-CC0E-5F67-85F7D3FB48E4&m=RT-N66U+(VER.B1)
"B. Update the firmware to version 3.0.0.4.268 or later"
