Hiya all, again. lol. I will start with the configuration. I have a Server at home, running Windows Server 2003, with a VPN connection. I have set the server up with a Domain, DNS, DHCP and an Active Directory so all the users can log onto any of the computers in the house with the same user name and password. Now, if I take my laptop over to my mates house, I need to be able to log on to the domain. I figured if I used VPN I could. So when I login to my laptop, I tick the box that says "log on using a dial up connection". I then log on to the VPN and I am logged in :-) Now this is where its starting to bug me slightly. When I surf the web, stream music or download files, the internet speed is around 650Kbps. Is there a way to use the VPN so that it provides me with the network resources I need, but then allows me to use my mates internet connection for the web. Basically, I want to use the VPN to access only the network resources at home and have all other traffic come through my mates internet connection when I am over my mates. Is this possible? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated :-) Daimian Williams

To make that work, you will probably have to change your VPN configuration on the client around. You'll need to route all traffic for the ports you want not on your network when on the VPN to the ISP that you want to utilize. What VPN client are you using to connect? Thanks for any input.

I am using the WIndows VPN connection. So how would I route the traffic. Sorry, I am a novice at this stuff. Thanks for your help :-) Daimian P Williams
