Thank you very much for your kind response.

I have downloaded QVPN Utility & installed on my laptop. I just configured my router (linksys WRVS4400N) & wanted to check locally before installing at remote location. I assign IP address (115.113.89.36/26) on WAN port & 192.168.2/6 on LAN port. Connected its WAN port to my local switch. Configured my laptop with a 115.113.89.x IP with same (/26) subnet. Now i want to connect it using QVPN Utility & ping 192.168.1.2 to test it. But, when i try to do this.. It stops on "verifying Network" and ends up with message: "The remote gateway is not responding. Do you want to wait?" Please tell me what to do or if i have done anything wrong.

Thanks!

Rahul, best is to test from outside source, configure the device for RA VPN server and have a client from the outside VPN in.. that way you can connect from inside your LAN to the WRVS4400N device and look at logs while the outside source connects, have the client access inside resources once connected.

Thanks for your suggesion. I tried from outside too, but didn't worked. Afterthat, i tried greenbow IPsec client. Configured using configuration guide (attached herewith). First i connected everything worked fine. But cannot establishe tunnel anothertime unless i reboot gateway (WRVS4400N). What i noticed is, when i close a opened tunnel on client on my pc. It donot closes tunnel completely, and stayes with warning "tunnel remaining on gateway". Can you please help me in this. Do i have made any wrong configuraiton.

Make sure that the "IPSEC Services" service is started.  That's what worked for me.

Make sure the Windows 7 firewall is turned on.
Restart your computer then:

1. Right click on Computer Icon
