My VPN is not working in CM11. I have tried all settings and variaties for my VPN provider but none seem to work so I have raised a support ticket with them.
I am seriously hoping this is not a CM11 issue with VPN not working because part of my reason for upgrading was so it would remember my settings and always be on.

Any idea how to use L2TP/PPTP VPN ?

Hello everyone
I am desperately looking on the forums and everywhere on the web to have the PPTP VPN setup on my samsung captivate. I have a hideip vpn account and it works fine on my win pc and iphone/ipods which ive tested. The onle reason for me to get samsung captivate is for the adobe flash support Coming to the matter, when I confiure the VPN PPTP with my credentilas it connects just fine and is very stable. But there seems to be no data transfer when I browse and I always end up with page not available error. someone please help me with fixing this issue.
I would greatly appreciate the work. thank you all for considering my issue. Also i have to let you know that i have 2.2 installed on the device. thanks
I just found this via google and I have the same problem. I thought it was my ROM. I am on Cog5 beta 2. Which is Android 2.3.3 and I can get VPN to work at all and I couldn't remember if it worked before.
Any luck?
After reading this post http://androidforums.com/captivate-support-troubleshooting/227657-hi-looking-some-captivate-vpn-help.html
I tired pinging the internel network and it worked. So its something with the browser or routing internet traffic?
Has anyone got Mobile Hotspot to work on their MS2 after the upgrade to Gingerbread?
I've been having problems - Tte MS2 properly assigns an IP address to PCs that try to connect to it over WiFi, but the connection doesn't seem to go past my MS2 to the Internet. Same thing whether USB or WiFi.
I'm on T-mobile on the USA - could that have something to do with it, some kind of authentication is being performed now (that wasn't being performed on Froyo?)
I had this problem too.
Now I use the app "barnacle wifi tether" and it works fine.
I'm from Brazil...

Thanks for the suggestion. If I root my phone I'll consider that option. Has anyone found any other fixes? I tried playing with the APN settings as suggested by some online, but it doesn't seem to help.

Usb sharing is f*d up - dnsmasq does not launches properly and phone gives no IP in response to dhcp req from pc. I don't remember, if setting an IP and gw manually solves the problem.
However launching _both_ sharing method at once helped. DHCP worked fine. Maybe launching wifi hotspot alone generates similar problem?
Did a factory reset and now Mobile Hotspot works!
Haven't tried USB tethering yet, will report back when I do.
Great! I also had this problem and this tip helped me.
Mobile Hotspot works but haven't got USB tethering to work properly yet. The computer can get an IP address from the phone, but no connection through to the Internet. This is after the factory reset.
Same with me here.. Already did FR but still no go..
Old thread I know but anyone sorted this yet, as its doing my head in, I even changed to a tethering plan in case i was being blocked.
Barnacle Tether doesn't work either same symptoms also says DHCP:Could not bind to DHCP port Address already in use
Use PDA Net, it's available in the Play Store

Could it be your carrier blocking 3G tethering?
Hi
3G tethering is not blocked by carrier as I am on a tethering plan and have spent a long time on the phone to an Indian call centre to sort it.
But joy of joys after trying everything I could think of including re-flashing and wiping all data etc. I have managed to get it working using wifi tether for root user

Hi
I am using a g900t with the AICP ROM 7.0 release and I am having some issues with VPN. I purchased VPN access from StrongVPN (If you know of a better provider please tell me who and why). I added my VPN credentials to the built VPN section of the ROM and it connects but randomly quits after awhile. I tried setting up the Always On VPN option but when it connects i have no internet access?
I am new to VPNs just trying to get something fast and reliable set up but feel i am stumbling around like a fool. Any help?

I did a clean flash, but cannot connect internet through wifi. There wasn't such problem before lollipop.
Other devices connect without problem.
Chrome says DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET
Mobile network works fine btw.
What might cause that?

Is it happening with all WiFi networks that you are connected to? Because it seems related to the DNS configuration.

No, only University's WiFi
I have the same, really annoying problem.
I use a local DNS to resolve my LAN name server, but the device on Android Lollipop never use the Local DNS and it ends with a 404.
I use "Fing" / "Ping and DNS" to do my network test, it says the hostname can't be resolved... and the DNS used is one on IPV6 (2a01:e00::1)
I have a lot of applications inside my private domain ( *.dk.lan ) managed by a bind9 / dnsmasq (I have tested both) server on Raspbian, and all was pretty good with Kitkat and lower (and on Mac OS / Linux )...
I have 8 devices, 5 on Lollipop with this problem and 3 on kitkat without it.
Some thread seems to appear on Internet about this kind of problem...
And, after investigation, it seems the Android Lollipop device use an Ipv6 DNS name resolver instead those send by the DHCP server...
If you have an idea... I'm listening !
About this problem, I've opened a issue on the Android tracker : https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=79504
I've been investigating this issue and it's seems that it's a kind of problem on how the OS stores the DHCP parameters.
If you try to make static the same configuration in my case it takes a /20 (255.255.240.0) network like /29 (255.255.255.248) ..... and this doesn't happen if the network it's the ussual /24 (255.255.255.0)
Not fixed in 5.0.1
Finally fixed in 5.1
Hi All,
Since I upgraded to 6.0.1 (stock) my VPN connection no longer works. Not using any app just the built in Android VPN to hide.me.
Used to work on 4.4.4 and 5.1.1.
Exactly the same settings on the same network on my Note 3 (4.4.2) work just fine.
Always the same 'unsuccessful' message on the Note 4 (SM-N910C) though.
PS I have done a factory reset, cleared the cache etc etc just in case but no joy.
Anyone come across this. Any solution or workaround?
Cheers,
MM
I think there was a problem with VPNs in Android 6.0 marshmallow. Don't know if it's been fixed though.
VPN is working fine on my phone with 6.0.1 MM. I use Betternet VPN.
I experienced a problem before with VPN when I installed the xposed module Force Immersive Mode. But after disabling this xposed module, my VPN worked fine again.
Well, I am totally unable to get a VPN running using the built in VPN client using L2TP/IPSEK PSK.
For the benefit of others who may have the same issue. I download OpenVPN for Android from the market and used a ovn (config) file from my VPN provider (hide.me) and it all just worked first time.
If you don't have an ovn file you can configure manually.
I am very surprised at Sammy letting it ship with broken VPN functionality. A lot of us need this to access work networks etc etc.
Mrmyagi did you ever find a fix for the built in VPN access? I use a tab4 for work and cannot get into my VPN anymore on marshmallow. Our IT department can't even figure out a workaround
I use tunnelbear on 6.0.1, and it works fine.

I would use a third party app only company doesn't allow installation of any apps off store. Might be able to install it with just apk though
FWIW I use the stock VPN facility to connect to the VPN facility of my Draytek router, and it works fine, so the stock facility isn't completely broken.

I use OpenVPN for Android (available on Play Store). Works for me and actually better (IMHO) than the built-in client.
