RV160 VPN config

Hi guys,

I have a RV160 VPN Router. I tried to configure a vpn tunnel between a client and the router's network. I want to connect with vpn to the network to see shared folders and network computers.
I want to use it on a Windows 10 pc, with the built-in microsoft vpn. (not third party software as like shrew soft vpn, because I found this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_WPagMhYns , with this method the vpn tunnel working, but I can't connect to shared folders, can't ping computers and etc.)
I tried to enable PPTP tunnel but windows can't connect to it. In the firewall PPTP port and GRE port enabled.

Have you guys any idea what should I do? Anyway.. Can I to config that vpn tunnel method in this router, what i wrote?

 

Thank you for your help. Sorry if my grammar is horrible :)

 - Depends , at at certain point in the configuration , you need to press Connect in order to establish the tunnel. A separate window pops-up , containing a number of status messages , ending with tunnel established. Does this work ?

Last time I tried to config the PPTP tunnel, enabled it. On the computer I add the correct credentials (fix ip, user name, password) and enabled pptp port and gre. and when i click to connect I get this massage: "The remote connection was denied because the user name and password combination you provided is not recognized or the selected authentication protocol is not permitted on the remote access server"

 

I tried to connect with the ipsec method too. I configured the ipsec client-to-site tunnel as I saw in the video what I linked, but in this case I get this massage: "The L2TP connection attempt failed because the security layer encountered a processing error during the initial negotiations with the remote computer"

I enabled MS-Chapv2 and Chap protocol.

 

 - Below are some info-resources on the L2TP error , check if these can help you :
