Details:
Once the PPTP is connected, the 192.168.8.1 E-Lins router get PPTP IP 192.168.1.205 from the PPTP Server. From 192.168.8.1, it can ping through 192.168.1.254, but cannot ping through 192.168.1.250.
Main Cause and Solution:
Item | Cause | Solution |
1 | Configuration is wrong | Please check the PPTP configuration if correct. Refer to the manual step by step. |
2 | Firmware | Some windows OS is not good compatible with E-Lins router. Please try new firmware. |
3 | PPTP Server lost route for PPTP Client | refer router usermanual at chapter 3.3.7.2 PPTP. In the above PPTP Server Vigor2850, we configed the static route for 192.168.8.0/24, then it solve the issue. See the picture below. |
Notes: If there is "PPTP" selection in Network Interface, try to select it if select the "WAN2" cannot work.
You can assign the PPTP IP for PPTP Client of H685/H820/H700/H720 as below,
