Hello,
I wonder if any of you Microsoft gurus can help...
Basically I'm having an issue with my laptop whereby when I fire up a VPN connection, I appear to lose all ability to web browse to anything.
Example 1: I'm at home, I can access the internet fine, fire up my VPN to the office, I then cannot browse the internet nor browse HTTP/HTTPS to anything on the network.
Example 2: I'm in the office (wired or wireless) and I VPN on to a client site to do some remote troubleshooting for example. Before starting the VPN connection, I can browse the internet, access our IP phone system using the web browser, however as soon as I start the VPN, I can't access the internet, can't access the phone system which I could 10 seconds previously AND cannot web browse to a clients phone system.
I am constantly faced with 'This page cannot be displayed'.
DNS resolves addresses both when I'm connected and not connected, so I know it's not a DNS related issue.
I can also ping every device that I'm attempting to web browse on to.
Due to the nature of my job (field network engineer) I have lots of Windows VPNs setup to various client sites to do remote fixes/changes, etc and this behaviour is exactly the same on anyone I attempt to connect to.
Now, just to throw a spanner in the works, my colleague can connect to the same VPN, and get access to the very devices which I cannot. We both run Windows 7 x64 and both had IE10 (I've now reverted back to 9 incase this was anything to do with it... but it would appear not)
I am completely drawing a blank here as to what this can be??
Any Google searches I have done, just bring up result after result about 'split tunnel' VPN setups, which I know is nothing to do with the issue I am having.
Anyone any ideas of anything I can look at or try??
Thanks in advance.
