Posted August 30, 200717 yr I'm having a problem with the VPN connection on my PC. I'm running XP-Pro and I am connected to the internet via my home lan, to a cable router. I have also recently installed a new network connection to my workplace using a VPN. Clearly I go over the same physical lan connection to my router. My problem is this. Whenever I come out of hibernation, e.g. I put the PC into sleep mode when I leave the room for an extended period, when I take it out of sleep mode, the VPN connection dialogue box comes up if I fire up IE or Outlook Express. I still connect via my router to ISP but the dialogue box continues to appear when I navigate between pages. The only way to get rid of this is to do a warm reset, or log-off/log-in. It is almost as though coming out of hibernation makes the computer think the VPN connection is my access method to the internet. If anyone understands what I'm saying here and can offer settings advice then I'd be grateful for the help. LouisB ------ "I'm a half-wit. I sold the other half on e-Bay"
