ICS interrupts VPN
Hi,
I'm using ICS to let my brother connect to the internet.
I also have VPN client connections.
Whenever ICS feature is running i can't use VPN connection. It connects, i can do Ping, Tracert and.... but can't surf using browsers.
After 2 month of involving i found the solution, ICS interrupts VPN. Disabling ICS made problem solved.
But i don't know why ?! what should i do to have them both working (ICS and VPN).
What do u suggest?MCP#3314468 MCSA:Security, MCSE:Security

Hi,
I would like to share the following document with you first.
If you create a virtual private network (VPN) connection on your host computer to a corporate network and then enable ICS on that connection, all Internet traffic is routed to the corporate network and all of the computers on your home network can access
the corporate network. If you don't enable ICS on the VPN connection, other computers will not have access to the Internet or corporate network while the VPN connection is active on the host computer.
Also, you may refer to the following link.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/234773
It indicates that if ICS is used, VPN should be enabled on client but not host.Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
