Topic: VPN Issues 8 final

[CharlieBrady]

re bug before i do, i dont think it is a bug.

Of course it's a bug. It should work. It doesn't. The only issue is what and where the bug is, and how it can be fixed or worked around. And the place to do that is in the bug tracker.

Finally got to the bottom of this. All other machines in the company had rock solid vpn. But mine didnt. I wondered if it was a win 7 64bit issue. But found we had another user using it just fine on win 7 64bit.

Removed all the intel c**p from my wifi on my laptop. Problem is now sorted. Not a sme issue

For the benefit of others who may run into the same issue, could you please elaborate a little on what you did.

There was some intel software for the wifi card. This had always caused a conflict with windows and the hardware enable/disable buttons etc.
It was called intel mywifi. Aloows the laptop to become an access point and other things of no real use.
Removed all of it from control panel. Rebooted.Now the hardware enable buttons work as expected and it doesnt have any vpn issues at all.
