Reply: (edit)Very Frustrated! Any help would be much appreciated. I'm using Sprint's Broadband Direct, Fixed Wireless. I'm running an Apple AirPort 2.0 base station, with an iMac 333 connected directly to the LAN port, two wireless iMac 500s upstairs, and a Hybrid cable modem connected to the WAN port. The system works very well with my iMacs! I have a Dell laptop running Windows NT (company computer) with Nortel's Contivity VPN client installed. I have been trying to get the Dell laptop to communicate with our company server with little success. Here's what I have tried. Using my connected iMac 333, I mapped several ports on 10.0.1.201 that are used by the Nortel client. I manually assigned IP address 10.0.1.201 and subnet 255.255.255.0 to the laptop. I unplug the LAN ethernet cable from my iMac 333 and plug it into the laptop. I restart the laptop and when I start up the VPN client the laptop is able to communicate with the base station and the modem, however, I get a VPN switch failure at the company server. Any ideas?
