   no tunnel with FVM318 when using WG602 W   
   06 Oct 04 08:54:48   
   
   I have Netgear FVM318 IPSec VPN set up so that workstations with   
   Netgear MA401 wireless card can establish VPN connection when   
   connected to FVM318.   
      
   My problem: I added WG602 access point to network, and added it as a   
   trusted connection to the FVM318.  The WAP hands out DHCP from the   
   router, but I am not able to establish VPN tunnel when the MA401 has   
   connected via the WG602.   
      
   Question: how do I configure the WG602 so that workstations connected   
   to the WAP can establish VPN tunnel to the FVM318?   
      
   FVM318 firmware is V1.1 Jan. 29 2003.  WG602 firmware is 3.2rc6.   
   MA501 firmware is 1.03.06, driver is 1.07.37, config utility is   
   1.07.37.25.  Workstations are running Windows 2000 with all service   
   packs & patches.   
      
   Currently WG602 settings are:   
   Encryption Type  	OFF   
   Access Control 	Disable   
   Spanning Tree: enabled   
   Mode: b only   
   Data rate: 11Mbs   
   Security: off   
   Access control: disabled   
   Advanced settings are factory default.   
   Wireless bridging is configured to act as an access point.   
      
   FVM318 settings are:   
   allow only trusted PCs based on MAC address (I have not added the MAC   
   for the WG602 -- do I need to?)   
   IPSec -- Safenet SoftRemote VPN client, with Aggressive Mode and   
   AES-256 Encryption   
      
   Once VPN tunnel is established I would also like to lock down the WAP   
   using trusted MAC addresses.  Are there other best practices I should   
   adopt?   
      
   Thanks,
