TL-MR6400 blocks vpn
Dear Admin
I recently purchased the above to be able to use with a "3" network data only sim to connect via a vpn to work.
I am on a Win10 machine, connected directly to an ethernet port on the router, the PC is connected to the internet and all appears well but if I try to connect to the office via a L2TP/IPsec VPN with a pre shared key, it fails to connect.
"The L2TP connection attempt failed because the security layer encountered a processing error during initial negotiations with the remote computer"
I have run wireshark and if I filter for the IP of my works server I see no communication at all when I attempt to connect.
I tried using a different SIM from EE, and same results.
I installed the old Virgin broadband (still has a week left on it) and it works using the VPN settings I have entered.
The problem I think is the router is capturing traffic on the VPN port - it thinks I want to connect to its VPN server, as the wireshark would not show traffic to the works address if the router isn't routing it. The problem is not the computers, is not the SIM card but the router.
Any help or suggestions please.
Many thanks
James
