Hi,
Need some assistance to setup the PPTP tunnel on my RV042, here's my scenario.
Head office: RV042 (192.168.1.1/24)
Remote office: Laptop running Windows XP with built-in PPTP client (192.168.2.x/24)
I have no problem to setup the PPTP server function at the headend, and I can bring up the PPTP tunnel from the remote office. However, I cannot access to website such as www.facebook.com as an example, but no trouble with the rest.
I can access Facebook locally, but not at the remote office...
What could be the possibility? Did I overlooked anything?
Anyhelp would be appreciated,
Cheers,
Charles

Hi Charles,
Can you access facebook at the remote office when not connected to the PPTP VPN?
Have you performed a tracert to see where the request is going?
Thanks!

Hi Dave,
To answer your question, I cannot access to Facebook when not connected to the PPTP VPN because it is blocked. (in China).
The strange thing is that I can access to youtube, picasa but just not Facebook.
I also did a tracert, it appears that I can reach facebook after 13 hops "www-13-02.snc4.facebook.com [66.220.146.32]"
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
