Hi All

I have a strange issue that i have been trying to resolve but to no avail.

My DrayTek VPN Tunnels have been working fine for the past couple of years but for some reason they have partually stopped working.

The Tunnels still show as online and i am able to access our office router, printer and SQL Server via their private IP's but when it comes to a few other devices such as PO Systems, Domain Controller and all my Hyper-V machines that sit on my SQL Server, it has stopped working.

I have disabled the Router to Router VPN link and created a Dial in user which then i can access everything perfectly fine so the issue is isolated to the Router VPN Tunnels...

Office Router
IP Range 10.12.24.1/24
Router IP: 10.12.24.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0

Has anyone else had this issue and can you see anything wrong with the above settings ?

Thank you in advanced

Have you ruled out firewall settings?

I'd create a firewall rule with 192.168.1.0/24 to 10.12.24.0/24 allow all services and see if that helps

When you say you cannot access other machines, can you ping them?

Wondering if it is just specific services which are struggling to traverse the tunnel, or all traffic to certain machines / IP's.
