    Cannot connect to VPN


    Hi,

    Since a while ago I cannot connect to a VPN connection. I get the error “Can’t connect to … The modem or other connecting device is already in use or is not configured properly”. I have seen many, usually old, posts, but they all have to do with dial-up modems.
    I am running W10 1809 Build 17763.292, am hard-wired to my router and don’t have a modem. If I restart the computer several times, then maybe I can connect, but mostly not. It has worked for years until now. How can I troubleshoot this please?

    :)

    Vpn ( trusted Vpn)

    Hi everyone.
    I am not an expert about Vpn and that's why I would like to know if someone could list me a few trusted Vpns, I would really appreciate any suggestion/ advice.

    Thanks.

    Cannot connect to VPN

    vpn is not working

    Hi,

    To address your concern, provide the answers to the following:

    • Is your WiFi enabled when trying to connect to VPN?
    • Were you able to use WiFi without connecting to VPN?

    If you can use WiFi properly without connecting to VPN, we suggest that you refer to your company's IT folks.

    Regards.
