Hello,

i have a problem with my cisco vpn client (version 5.0.07.00290) on
windows 7 32-bit. I´ve installed it on a Dell Latitude E6500. If i use
it over my ethernet- or wireless-lan interface, the client works well
but if i use the internal umts card, the client connects as usual but no
data can be send or received through the tunnel anymore.

I´ve tried to change the mtu value on the mobile interface but the
problem still exists ...

Can anybody help me with this problem?

Thanks a lot

Marco

Is this a problem that occurs immediately, or does it work for a
few minutes and then die?

The problem occurs immediately and the connection is up as long as i
close it manually.

Ok. I use the same laptop with UMTS internal card, and there is an
issue with the Dell driver. It has a network card emulation built in,
with a DHCP server functionality that has a lease time of only 5 minutes.
This lease is of course expanded every time, but unfortunately Windows
(XP in my case) is resetting all kinds of network uses whenever this
occurs.

We use VPN via PPTP, and it is lost when this occurs.

Workaround: don't use the Dell drivers, but use drivers from Ericsson.
I have asked Dell about this problem but they did not respond.

But when you cannot get it to work at all, you probably have a
different issue.

Thank you,

i´ll test a different driver first. I also read about problems, with
private ip-ranges like 10.x.x.x (that i get from my provider), but the
vpn-client works with win-xp.
