How to configure VPN (RV082)

[jdimpas]

Hello Guys,

Actually I'm new with this VPN router (RV082) and it's my first time to setup this system. I wanted to have this kind of setup:

Home User(VPN client software) -->internet---->VPN tunnel --> Office network (VPN router).

Can you help me out with the router configuration on the VPN side of it? Internet configuration is already done and its working.

I would appreciate you help. Thanks

hi... logon to the router's setup page click on the VPN >> VPN client access >> create a username and password and use the same username and password for the VPN client software to connect to the VPN tunnel..

First you have to make sure under your firewall tab the Block WAN Requests is disabled.  Then under the VPN tab enable PPTP server and what ever pass through is enabled.  Then create a tunnel under the client to gateway>local group setup then set up VPN client access for your users.  I have the same router and firmware and it works for me.  Make sure when you set up your QuickVPN software you have the correct user/password and WAN IP address to your router.

Thanks for the reply.

Can you give the working configuration on the Client to Gateway configuration?

I already did the instruction you've said.. to disable block WAN request, Enable all VPN Pass through, Enabled PPTP, already created VPN client access..

Please! Help me with the detailed configuration on this tab (Client to Gateway)

I did what you have said.. but when try to connect using a QuickVPN software it says " QuickVPN connection Failed to establish a connection "..

make sure that the router has the latest firmware and the latest Quick VPN is installed on the client computer .. change the MTU size on the router to 1458 .. the firewall on the client computer should be disabled ... and the VPN passthrough should be enabled on the client-end router ..
