More Vista Fun with VPN

by admin on Jan.30, 2007, under Systems, VPN, Vista

I originally posted on running Cisco VPN on Vista here.There is actually a newer client that is working better and its version # is 4.8.02.0010. You must install the msi version because the is version doesn’t install on Vista. We have fun this to be a stable VPN client on both Vista and XP for most connections.

We have been running into some issues with running this VPN over slower network connections but the issue comes and goes. A possible workaround that seems to be working in the initial stages is the following.

Try this:

1. Open an administrative command prompt.

2. Type “netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled“.

3. Reboot.

The default autotuninglevel is “normal” if you want to set it back.

You can also try removing IPv6 from networking as this has been reported to screw up some routers.
