Asked By Eleni Hughes 30 points N/A Posted on - 05/22/2013

Hello fellow members.  Please help me out here.  I'm trying to connect a Nortel VPN client for Window 2003 server.  I can sometimes connect but most of the time I'm getting an "unable to reach server" error.  Anyone having the same problem?  Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

 

It's unfortunate that Nortel VPN client works intermittently for you. I've been reading about this and it appears that a lot more people are also experiencing the same. The solution is pretty simple though, just disable Internet Connection Sharing. Follow these steps:

 

1. Click > Control Panel.

 

2. Open Network Sharing Center > click Change Adapter Settings on the left.

 

3. On the connection you are using, right click > Properties.

 

4. Switch to Sharing Tab.

 

5. Uncheck "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection" > hit OK.

 

 

This should fix your issue.
