I need a goodvpn client for my X1 for connection to an Ciscoi VPN concentrator with Radius authentication . The last years I work with movian VPN on my Toschiba e830. After this device I have had an XDA orbit 2 and must change to anthaVPN. With the X1 anthaVPN isn't working. If I have installed anthaVPN on the device i can't use WIFI.

I'm using bluefire VPN client and it's working just fine.
Thxx, I will try it after my hollydays.
Karsten
Where can I download a demo of bluefire vpn?
www.bluefiresecurity.com is down!
Karsten
I have found the version 2.7.5 for download and this works.
But if I have installed bluefire VPN the Internet Sharing don't work with my laptop. After uninstall bluefire VPN Internet Sharing works fine again.
What's the problem?
Karsten
Hm, I don't know. Maybe there's a problem with you VPN config or it's a bug. Hard to tell.
bluefire vpn works fine. After reboot the device I must wait some minutes for working wifi and than all works with wifi and hsdpa.

Hi All
I have a new XDA II and would like to connect over my ISP (UUNET http://global.mci.com/about/network/pops/) with an ISDN number to UUNET and from UUNET over VPN to my coprate network. I have my VPN IP number and the Group-Authentication code. With my Notebook using Cisco VPN Client 4.0 its works well.
Any suggestions would be good.
Thanks and regards
JFK
Which type of VPN do you use?
PPTP is apparetly more reliable than IPSec (an O2 article I can no longer find stated this). One of the conslusions was that neither was very reliable, especitally if your moving. So if you get it to work, don't move!
Other than that, just ensure you are connecting to the right server and all your settings are correct.
Ben
you may try ncp vpn. It have PPC version.
supposingly you could connect to cisco VPN with it.

:x I cannot seem to get the VPN side of things working.
Has anyone tried a VPN using WiFi ?
I can connect to a WiFi Access Point and browse the internet. I then try to establish a VPN connection to my network using the IP address of the VPN Server, get prompted for the user credentials, and the XDA tries to connect and just doesn't, no errors. The VPN Server is working, as I have tested the same settings using an HP Ipaq 5550.
Any suggestions ?
VPN Fault
O2 Data Support have confirmed that this is a bug.. Damn ! :evil:
I am using a kaiser and I attempt to connect VPN to my office by PPTP.
The problem is it couldn't connect using dial up (ie. HSDPA/GPRS).
VPN can connect fine using wifi.
I have thought of port block in my ISP...
but when I use wmwifirouter to share my kaiser HSDPA out to my notebook
my notebook connect to the VPN server fine
All other applications eg. FTP HTTP RDP work fine on my kaiser...
Any clues on this issue guys?
Hi,
I am trying unsuccessfully to connect to a PPTP VPN using the VPN client built into my new HTC TyTN II.
Wifi - I can connect using a WinXP SP2 laptop using wifi through my home linksys wireless router (which has PPTP passthrough enabled) using the standard Win XP vpn client. When I try with my TyTN II, I can browse ok but if I set up a VPN connection I get "VPN server problems. Verify your username and password, etc"
GPRS - If I try to connect over GPRS, I connect to Orange GPRS but when it tries to connect to the IP address of my VPN server, I get the same VPN server problem error message. (As a side issue, I asked Orange to enable my account for vpn which they did, sent a SIM update and told me to change my apn to 'internetvpn' instead of 'orangeinternet')
As I can connect through my wifi connected laptop, it seems to point to my WM6 vpn client but my forum searches suggest that the WM6 client works ok. Oh, and yes, I have checked that I am using the correct vpn username and password!
Any thoughts greatly appreciated - the ability to maintain some linux servers was my main reason for getting this phone!

Bump!!! Same problem here. I have all the proper ports open on my router and still no luck.
I've been trying to resolve this with the people that manage my vpn server which is my case is a Watchguard firewall - apparantly Watchguard isn't compatable with PPTP on WM6 and they have suggested using IPSec and have provided me with a client (not that I've got that working yet either!)
I suggest you contact the vendor of your vpn server and ask them whether they are compatable and how a WM6 client should be configured. Post anything you find out here for the benefit of others.
WM6 don't connect to VPN over GPRS/ WiFi
Friends...
I have the same problem... the VPN server is Windows Server 2003... My PDA has WM6 (with in-build VPN client)... then VPN PPTP would work OK... but What is the wrong??
Regards...
I also could not connect on vpn over GPRS and got error message, but after I tested all installed programs I have found out that my SPB GPRS Monitor was the reason for the errors. So I killed it.
Now VPN over GPRS connects and looking into register I see that I am really connected i.e. I got DNS server IP, I got name of the local network and dynamic IP for my HTC, but nothing works. As I have found out from server guys they see me but my dynamic IP is not logged in server DNS, so no program sees me and I can not work.
Can somebody help?
Same
I have a similar problem but the difference is that i don't even receive an error message. When i click connect NOTHING happens!! The wifi i am using is an open network but I must connect to vpn to connect to the internet.
Please help as i really need to get this working...
I have been trying to iron this out with IT at my office as well. I have been trying to get WM6.1 VPN working for nearly a year.
I have a TyTnII and my IT office just bought some kind of WM6.1 Motorola/Sprint Smartphone as well which they actually asked me about setting up for them.
The problem what I am experiencing is that I CAN connect to the VPN server (I use one of the TaskMan progs that has ipconfig built it, and I am getting an appropriate IP from the VPN server). BUT I can't browse ANY intranet sites via PIE or Opera Mobile 9.5. Whenever I try to browse to an intranet site I just get nothing, browser does nothing for ~10min then gives timeout error.
I have heard that this has to do with an inbuilt error in the PPTP module of the VPN client that incorrectly makes VPN server requests using the IP address assigned by the GPRS/EDGE/3G/etc. connection rather than the IP address assigned by the VPN connection, obviously will cause problems!
Anyway, we are investigating 3rd part VPN clients...
Only IPSEC works
I also made many tries to get vpn working over BT PAN profile.
The only configuration which worked for my was IPSEC with the Safenet SoftRemote-LT Client on PC.
With the windows native pptp based vpn does not work .
I got the error code 721 what means that the GRE protocol (frame type 47 on port 1721) does not pass through. This seems to be the the real problem of the packet filtering components of the WM device. The problem is not related to bluetooth or PAN Driver, because it behaves in the same way if you try to do it over USB port. No way.
You guys might want to check out my post about getting my PPTP VPN working and actually syncing ActiveSync on a fixed schedule regularly over VPN.

Getting what you want to work over VPN requires work URL Exceptions so that the traffice is properly routed.

Watchguard does support PPTP, your IT guys just need to configure it. As for IPSec which would be awesome because there is an app call Greenbow that will connect you over 3G doesn't work with Watchguard. You can only connect using their own client for it which needs a license and isn't support on Windows Mobile. They got a hate email from me for that crap.
I'm trying to connect my phone (Samsung SCH-i760) to my co's Cisco VPN concentrators (all IPSEC) via the phone's wifi.
I've tried Bluefire and AnthaVPN and they make my wifi connection disappear. The wifi doesn't re-appear until I remove the vpn software.
I've also tried the NCP's client and when the software is installed the phone won't turn back on after it's turned off after some period of inactivity. The only way to get the phone back on is to remove and reinstall the battery.
Does anybody know of a client that works?
Thanks!

There is a built-in L2TP/IPSec VPN client in Windows Mobile......
I use this to connect to both Cisco PIX/ASA Firewalls as well as Cisco routers. Have a search as I think I even posted some configurations as well.

There's no facility in the built-in VPN client to pass groupname and grouppwd, so unfortunately it doesn't work with my co's VPN infrastructure.
Thanks!

You can specify the group as part of the username and the VPN device should interpret it (assuming it has been configured to do so?), however I don't think there is a way to send a separate group password.
Code:
[email protected]!group-vpn
or
[email protected]#group-vpn
If you are using strong encryption with good PSK's or Certificates then the group password doesn't really give you that much (IMO). I prefer to keep things simple for users so there is less for them to break. The built-in VPN client in Windows is pretty simply (same as the dial-up) and can be easily packaged using the Windows CMAK tools.
Cisco has recently released the AnyConnect VPN client for Windows Mobile. it might be worth having a look at this.
Andy
Andy, unfortunately it's my co's VPN that I'm trying to connect into, and they mandate groupname and grouppwd, so I guess I'm outta luck with the built-in VPN client...
Regarding the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client, I thought it only did SSL VPN and didn't have any facility to do IPSec VPN.
Weird, I have been using Bluefire v2.7.5.706 for about a year and a half with out a problem. I connect to my company ASA5000 IPSEC VPN client without a problem. Of course, its not over WiFi but over the 3G network. But even with the software installed, I have not had WiFi disappear on me. Did you try establishing a wifi connection first, then connecting through Bluefire?
There is also this VPN Mobile software (http://www.thegreenbow.com/mobile.html) for mobile devices.
Give it a try and tell us what want you think. You can try it for 30 days free of license.
Here is the software download page for VPN Mobile.
Same here for VPN Client software for laptop.
