   Contivity VPN Client and home network

   Hi,   
      
   I hope someone could help because my networking knowledge is not that great.   
      
   I have a home network at home behind a Linksys router with IP addresses   
   starting from 192.168.1.100. I also use Contivity VPN Client to connect to   
   my employer's network using a smart card. The problem is that when the   
   Contivity VPN Client is connected I cannot access any of my home computers.   
   For example, I cannot map to shared drives neither by name nor by TCP/IP   
   address, neither I can browse web pages in any of my home web sites, e.g.   
   http://mypc//.   
      
   My explanation is that the reason for this is that all home LAN requests are   
   re-routed through Contivity VPN Client. When I stop Contivity VPN Client   
   everything is OK. In Contivity VPN Client Name Server Options both DNS and   
   WINS properties are blank.   
      
   Why is this happening and what I can do to connect to my LAN computers?
