VPN connections are suddenly trying to connect through a non-existent modem instead of wireless.

I have several set up VPN connections that I use for a few months. Today, I tried today to connect to one of them and realized that the dialog box connection said dial instead of connect. It is now trying to connect through a modem, which I don't have.

I deleted the VPN configuration and set up a new, but I get the same thing. When I go into the properties of the VPN connection, for 'connect using', he says 'deleted Modem - (unavailable device). There is no option to select the appropriate device.

I have no idea what this happened, but I connect now connect to any VPN because they all are trying to use this modem that does not exist. I can connect to the Internet fine. I can connect to the thin wireless networks. It's just the VPN connections.

Open IE and make sure the box never establish a connection isCHECKED.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8620 thinks that it is connected to a non-existent telephone line

    When I type the touchscreeen on the printer to reactivate the energy saving mode, it displays the following message:

    Detected telephone cord

    The phone cord is plugged.  To receive faxes, the printer must be turned on.

    Note that the printer must be turned off at 24:00, every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  To change the calendar, use the calendar on and off feature in the Setup menu.

    All this information is true, except that no telephone cord is connected.  I tried to remove the blind plug installed at the factory of telephone fax on the printer plug, but it makes no difference.

    The message does not prevent me to do something, that's all just annoying; why he keep appearing?  Can I prevent displayed?

    Just in case someone else is following this thread, it seemed that it could be a hardware failure, but I was not keen enough on fixing it to be discovered.

  • Not ios10 blocking VPN PPTP connections through personal hotspot?

    I use an iPhone 6 + and was upgraded to ios10, two days ago.

    While I don't have a configuration of the VPN connection on the phone, I connect my computer laptop personal hotspot of the iPhone to use internet and sometimes connect to a VPN.

    Before my upgrade to ios10, my laptop could still connect to the VPN while connected to the hotspot from my iPhone.

    After that I updated to ios10, my laptop does not connect to the VPN I connect to.

    I see reports that Apple has abandoned the use of the connection for PPTP VPN connections on ios10.

    But most of the people having problems seem to be people who connect to their phones directly to the VPN in the iPhone settings.

    In my case, my phone is just acting under the guidance of the internet on my laptop but it seems that it does not obstruct my laptop to connect to a pptp even connection if that should have no impact on the phone itself.

    I went down to ios9 and my laptop can connect again to the VPN.

    But now my Apple Watch does not work with my phone because I improved the watch to os3.

    Any ideas if there is a work around for the connection for pptp connections using the hotspon on ios10?

    Apple mentions alternative - Prepare for the removal of PPTP VPN before you upgraded to iOS 10 and macOS Sierra - Apple Support

  • VPN connection: An unexpected error has occurred.

    I am suddenly unable to get my built-in VPN connection works on my iMac with OS X 10.11.5.  I get the VPN connection message: an unexpected error has occurred.  I have been using this VPN configuration to connect to work for several months with success.

    But last week (and I do not know if it had nothing to do with it), I went on vacation and used a free wi - fi setup of Tim Hortons.  I had a LOT of trouble getting the next login page, and I checked all playing with different settings of network without success.  When a change did not work, I put it to its original setting.  Finally, I learned to use Safari to access the free WiFi connection page of Tim.  Then once connected, everything was OK.

    But when I returned a week later and if necessary, to start my VPN connection to access the work, it wouldn't start.  I checked and recheck all my settings preferably of different network, but did not find those who were wrong.  I even deleted and re-entered my VPN service definition without solving the problem.

    Thinking that the problem could be the newly installed ISP of Bell equipment (we went from Rogers while I was away), I used my BlackBerry smartphone (issued by my employer) to create a wi - fi hotspot and accessed to the internet using this connection which completely ignored my home ISP equipment.  But still, I was unable to establish a VPN connection.

    I then tried my iPad VPN connection, and it worked!  Then, I defined a VPN service on the iMac to my wife and the iMac to my daughter and was able to successfully establish a VPN connection to my work very well, using exactly the same VPN configuration.  This led me to the conclusion, it was a problem on my iMac (and not with my new ISP or VPN system of my work that had none of the changes you made), but I still can't find what is "broken".  I run Onyx for my iMac OS X 10.11.5 and repaired permissions and clean the cache and all the rest she is doing to "solve" problems.  But the problem persisted.

    Is there a preference file corrupted somewhere (scan option is no longer on the current version of the Onyx for a reason any)?

    I still have a network setting wrong somewhere I need to go back to the system is correct value?

    Here is the attempt to VPN from the file system.log (with some hidden values in the case where they display my work VPN access):

    I finally found my VPN problem.

    There is a 'racoon' file that is generated when I connect to the VPN to my work site.

    I have created a modified version of this file so that my connection does not expire in 3600 seconds (changed in 24 hours).

    Apparently, there are some slightly different settings (such as certain IP addresses other than VPN IP of my work) in this file under our new ISP Bell from the former FAI Rogers.

    And if I connect to the WiFi Hotspot from my BlackBerry, it does not once again because these settings in the file are different again.  I must return the file generated instead of my modified file.

    Bad luck!

  • ASA 5505 ASDM VPN connection problem

    Hello

    We are running a version of firewall ASA 5505 8.4 (4) 1. The ASDM version is 6.4 (9).

    The problem is when the creation of remote access VPN connection, it works fine for about 2-3 days.

    After that, the VPN client cannot connect more and gives the error code 789.

    In this case, the VPN clients are clients of Windows 7 from different remote networks with the same problem scenario.

    Windows 8.1 clients cannot connect at all and show the same error code...

    All connections go through the keys defaultragroup and preshare match on both sides.

    When the user to connect attemps I receive the following text in the log of the ASDM:
