Title: Firmware 1.30 : Need help for VPN and Web remote access
Post by: guitren on April 28, 2009, 08:27:24 AM

Can someone ease tell me what to do to enable these 2 functionality?

I saw that for the VPN (PPTP) it's just a matter of going adding it in the virtual servers. PPTP connection work when inside the LAN, but not when outside.

Same problem with the remote admin stuff... How can this be achieve??? I've put check box where it is supposed to be activated, but it's not...

So I,m wondering if someone could put me in the right direction in order to get these working.

Thanks!

By the looks of you forgot to configure your internet gateway device to open up the required services/ports.
The DIR does not open up the services/ports automatically on the WAN device.

Yep the 1723 port is open... I did a port scan from work. I also just found some info about the GRE IP service. So I will try that for the VPN. I'm still clueless about the remote management (that port is not open from my scan from the office... will check the router again tonight, once I get home).
