iPhone connects to VPN, but can't surf

Following the L2TP connection with iPhone guide below, I am able to get the iPhone to connect via a VPN, but I can't surf the web after connecting. What other settings need to be set to get the VPN to work? Thank you for your help.

Ok, a couple of things come to mind.

1) In WebAdmin>>Remote Access>>Advanced, have you set DNS that the client will use?
2) Did you add your VPN Pool (L2TP) to the allowed networks list for both DNS and the web proxy?

Thank you for taking the time to help Scott.  I've checked on the answers to your questions below and am still unsuccessful.

1) I already had the DNS set in Remote Access>>Advanced.

2) I already had the VPN Pool (L2TP) added to the allowed networks list for DNS.  By web proxy, do you mean the Packet Filter Rules?  If so, then I already had that configured as well.

I also already have a masquerading rule set for the VPN Pool to the External (WAN).

What would be your next place to check?  I appreciate your willingness to help.  I really love the Astaro software.  It has been a blessing at my house.
