FYI -- originally posted this in the Win8 forums and was asked to post here as well...
This is a fresh install of Win8 Pro. For a couple of weeks my VPN connection (PPTP router at work) was working fine, but now it has stopped working.
VPN will connect, but once connected I cannot access any remote computers or devices. No RDP or pings, no error messages. Connecting VPN from my Mac works just fine, and I can RDP & ping on that connection, so I do not think it is an issue with my home or work routers.
So far I have done the following to troubleshoot:
- reboot routers on both sides
- disabled Win8 firewalls
- disabled Windows Defender
- no other firewall/security software installed
- deleted/recreated VPN connection
- used netsh to reset tcpip
- checked arp
So far, nothing seems to help.
Any ideas?
