Windows 7 32 b ipsec client to RV220W error 789

[rloustau]

Hello,

I try to connect to RV220W with windows 7 client but  I fail : error 789. I compare again and again pre shared key, but it doesn't change anything

Is anybody connect to RV220W with IPsec client ?

Thanks

Hi GF, windows 7 doesn't have a built in IPsec client. It has a PPTP connection.

You may try to enable the PPTP server and user for this and try, it should work without issues.

Thanks for your answer but I can't understand.

In my windows network connexion properties, I can choose  vpn type :  Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol with IPsec.

Despite of that, do I have to use RV220W PPTP server ?

What about security : is it pptp security level or ipsec vpn security level ?

Thanks

GF, this is not an ipsec vpn and it is not as secure. The only built-in window support will be PPTP in regards to connecting to the router.

If you're looking for IPsec, you need to use quickvpn (free Cisco software) or a 3rd party software such as greenbow, shrewsoft, ipsecuritas, etc.

Quickvpn crashes when I launch it. That's why, i tried windows PPTP
