Behide Linksys broadband router, SSH VPN client...

My PC is behide a Linksys broadband router.
I want to make a connection to a far point (Astaro 3.217) by using the Sentinel VPN client.

Should I enable "IPSec Pass Through" in Linksys device?
Should I enable "NAT-T" on the VPN client?

P.S. Without Linksys, I can connect to the far point (Astaro 3.217)!

You should disable IPSec Passthrough, and use NAT-T. Make sure the Linksys has the latest firmware, because I was having problems making a VPN connection until I upgraded. Before the upgrade, the Astaro was reporting that IPSec passthrough was enabled on the remote end (Linksys) even though the Linksys showed it as disabled.

Also, lower you MTU on the client PC so that the packets don't get dropped due to the extra headers that are added for the VPN tunnel. Setting the MTU to 1400 should be more than enough.

I've followed the instruction as yours... but still fail [:S]

Linksys Firmware: 2.44.2 (Latest!)
IPSec Pass Through: Disabled

And I'm using Windows ME...
According to http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/30/
I've changed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTrans\MaxMTU t0 1400
