   vpn on Windows 2000 -> ping fails (127.0

   Hi,   
      
   I am using my laptop (Windows 2000 with Cisco VPN 4.0.2b) on more then one   
   network (DHCP switched off).   
      
   Consequently I selected on the  Advanced TCP/IP settings two fixed IP   
   addresses (192.168.1.12 and 10.0.0.12)   
   The related gateway- and DNS server-IP addresses also were properly   
   installed.   
      
   When I ping a remote machine always 127.0.0.1 is returned and I fail to   
   obtain a connection.   
      
   I tried using the metric value "1" for the default gateway address and "2"   
   for the other in order to switch but that also fails, although not always   
   ...Pffff.   
      
   Only when I use one single IP address in the TCP/IP settings it works fine..   
      
   A colleague who uses XP doesn't suffer from this and he's able to connect 1   
   minute faster, not having to modify the settings all the time ;-)   
      
   Before this I tried also other vpn versions.   
   SSH never gave me problems, but it's slower.   
      
   Any suggestions what might be causing this?
