Windows 10 L2TP Client Setup not working
Posted: Tue Oct 03, 2017 5:16 am
Hello,
I've got a working installation of SoftEther VPN running on a remote server, and I've been able to successfully connect using the proprietary SoftEther Client for Windows, so I know the server is running correctly.
In the SoftEther server manager, I've allowed L2TP and set a pre-shared key.
On the client machine, I've followed all the directions here...
https://www.softether.org/4-docs/2-howt ... ient_Setup
...performing the equivalent settings for the Windows 10 VPN UI, including:
- ensuring the host IP is correct
- entering the correct user/password
- changing the adapter to use L2TP/IPSec and setting the pre-shared key
When I try to connect, it looks like Windows VPN client succesfully authenticates, but then it sits on "Connecting..." and never completes the connection. What's wrong?
