Mac Cisco VPN Client Verizon Problems with KPC650

Michael

Hello, this is just a heads up for anyone planning on getting Verizon BroadbandAccess to use with their PowerBook to access Cisco VPN.

It doesn't work.

Other VPNs work fine, but there is a problem with Cisco.

Verizon is not able to help.

The Cisco Client error looks like the error log below. Basically, when trying to connect, it fails.

it appears the current version of VZAccess for Mac 1.1, does not support Cisco VPN on Mac OS X. So, check if there is a more current version of VZAccess that works before purchasing.

Verizon Tech Support has confirmed this.

If there is a change, we will post here.

FYI, other VPNs work fine with Mac.

Hmmm... I consistently use Cisco VPN client over the 650 (almost every day), and it works every time.

In fact, I work at Cisco, and other Mac users here haven't had a problem either with the combo.

Great, thanks for the confirmation. Apparently the problems this one person was having, may be related to his setup/configuration.

Were there any extra steps you needed to perform to get it working?

Thanks!

No extras steps required. Same VPN procedure, regardless if I'm using Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or EVDO.

I will have to get more info from the customer, they were able to use the Cisco Client from ethernet & Airport without problems but had problems over EVDO - on the same Mac.
