    VPN and Network Shares

    I thought I'd just take a quick minute to summarize how I got this working (thanks a ton to Pericynthion and RMerlin for their help!) in case someone else stumbles across this thread with the same type question. First - as noted above, make sure that your VPN IP range is in the same subnet as...

    VPN and Network Shares

    Woo hoo!! Success!! By enabling VPN to Client broadcast support and putting my VPN IP range on the same subnet as the rest of my network I can now use all my network shares through the VPN connection just as I can while on my home network! Computer name worked just fine - it wasn't necessary...

    VPN and Network Shares

    Never mind - I found the fixed IP address assignment. I needed to do that anyway in order to be sure I could remote desktop into the right machines from outside the network.

    VPN and Network Shares

    Yea - I disabled that setting because of all the "buggy" log messages I was getting. I did a Google search on the message and found a post from Merlin saying that if you disable broadcast support that it will make the error messages go away. But it sounds like you haven't noticed any adverse...

    VPN and Network Shares

    So I was able to connect and I could ping each of the devices on my network just fine but I still can't use my already established network shares that I had mapped previously. I'm guessing this is because they are mapped using the computer name instead of the IP Address?? If so, will I be...

    VPN and Network Shares

    Excellent. Thanks very much for the education! I think I have this working now. I did a VPN connection into my network using my iPhone and then did a ping throughout my subnet and it found every device that was showing in my client list on the router. This means that the VPN connection is...

    VPN and Network Shares

    I think I have it figured out now. The VPN IP range was in a different subnet than the rest of my devices. So I've changed that and while I haven't yet been able to test this from my MS Surface I was able to connect to the VPN via my iPhone and ping the other network computers so I know that...

    VPN and Network Shares

    Very helpful. Thank you for the information! So can I assume then that 254 clients is the maximum allowed on a network (or subnet?). So I've currently got all that allotted to the LAN and then I'm using a different subnet for the VPN? I'll make the changes and see what happens. I'll...

    VPN and Network Shares

    OK. So bear with me (I'm new to this) if my DHCP Server range is from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 what exactly do I need to set my VPN range to in order to make this work?

    VPN and Network Shares

    I originally posted this in the ASUS RT-AC66 section as that is the router I'm using but perhaps it's better suited for here so... I'm having trouble getting my VPN connection setup in such a way that I can see my network shares. I'm successfully getting connected to the VPN but I just cannot...

    VPN and Network Shares

    I'm having trouble getting my VPN connection setup in such a way that I can see my network shares. I'm successfully getting connected to the VPN but I just cannot see any network shares or network computers. I also cannot connect to network locations that I have already mapped. I've got a...
