[iodine-users] Windows Client: connection succesful, can not ping server.

Hi Robin, thanks for replying. In the past couple of days I've done some
investigation. 

As per usual I've started the server part on the DD-WRT router using putty.
When ping 10.0.0.1 on the router I get a reply, both in the same session as
well as a separate putty session . When I ping 10.0.0.1 on my Windows Vista
machine, without the Iodine client running, I get a reply from the ping.
When I start the client on the windows machine I'm no longer able to ping
10.0.0.1 anymore.

When I start the Iodine client I'm running a command line terminal with
administrator privileges, as it will not start otherwise. I see that the
network device is initialized and Windows reports it as being in use. 

While sending a ping I've used smsniff to check if the ping is actually sent
across the network device and this application doesn't register it. 

I'm currently at the end of my own knowledge in the matter. If some specific
information is helpful, please let me know and I will share it. So, if you
would like to see specific config files, let me know which ones and
how/where to obtain them.

Kind regards,

Anne

Hi, i could be wrong but i think u need to do some bit of bridging.
Maybe if possible first show us the configs and we will see where the
problem is.
