I'm having a bit of an issue with pptp on the Kaiser. The handset is provided by Vodafone so it's branded a v1615, I've not flashed it with anything yet.
I can create and establish a pptp connection via 3g to my server successfully, however as soon as I either go to messaging (setup for imap to the server's internal IP) or PIE to access OWA the pptp connection just drops.
Anyone any ideas?!
Bit of an update - in Messaging the network to use was wap which had an incorrect access point set. I changed it to work, set the access point to internet (I'm on Voda UK), username & password of web.
Then I created the pptp connection under VPN for this (the work) connection.
Now in messaging when I hit send/receive it dials the 3G connection, succeeds, then establishes the pptp connection successfully. And stays connected.
Only, still no mail - it reports back unable to retrieve new messages or contact server.
On the server, it shows there is a ras client and gives it's IP (obtained by dhcp).
I can't ping it (the kaiser) through the vpn.
I can't get imap to work through the vpn from the kaiser to my server.
I can't get RDP to work through the vpn
I can't get PIE to access OWA when addressing the internal IP of the server through the vpn.
I know these services work via this same pptp connection from another windows box. It's almost like it's not routing traffic down the tunnel. Vodafone don't seem to be blocking it as it is establishing a connection. Anyone any ideas??
This is more than frustrating. PPTP connection establishes fine, RRAS reports back an IP address for the logged on client.
I've tried using vxutil on the device (http://www.cam.com/vxutil_pers.html) - when the tunnel is reported as up, it is unable to pass any traffic through the vpn it seems, no tcp, udp or icmp. Nothing.
I have tried adding the server ip address under exceptions, also *.*, but no difference.
I ran Ethereal/Wireshark on the server, not one packet even reaches the server, this pptp connection is useless and somewhat of a let down.
I guess nobody else uses pptp at all? I would have thought I had a fairly standard setup with a W2k3 box nat'd behind a 3com router/firewall.
PPTP works fine on any other device apart from this..
Just so share my experisnce with VPN. I have configured PPTP using the WM6 VPN client and I am able to establish connection on my Kaiser(stock rom).
The connection works fine in PIE when I use it to access one of my servers via HTTP. In fact, I just need to point PIE to the URL of my server(internal IP. I have to set the IP in the hosts file in the registry) and it will automatically dial into my VPN.
For RDP, I am also able to login to my server but strangely the connection will automatically drop after 3 mins or so. I am also unable to get the RDP client to automatically use VPN. I have to manually establish the VPN connection myself.
You may want to try some other VPN clients and not the WM6 VPN client. I have read some threads in the past in this forum regarding other VPN clients that work on WM6.
Hello,
I have no problem connecting to my VPN using PPTP over both WiFi and 3G.
The problem I am having is that when I use the 3G connection and VPN http requests are not routed through the VPN connection. When using the WiFi connection everything works as expected and http request are routed to my corporate network.
Now, I have set up the URL exceptions and think that I've done everything else I am supposed to (but obviously not). Does ANYONE know which registry settings need to be tweaked to force all traffic (or even just http) to use the VPN when connected to 3G?
Thanks in advance, Maxim.
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,

There you go.
Set your current router to connect through pppoe and you are ready.
Good luck.

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 ?
wifi pppoe doesnt work for me
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

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.

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
Tmobile G2 - Stock
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.

Does the RT-N66U have a server and dlna function that can be used with Bubbleupnp?

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"
http://www.flashrouters.com/routers...router-tomatousb-router-privateinternetaccess
If you use privateinternetaccess for your VPN their is a Tomato firmware customized for it Tomato Version:*K26VRT-N
It lists the firmware.
