I connect from Verizon FiOS and use a Verizon router.  i disabled the windows firewall to no avail.
 
this is the first time something has not been able to connect in the 10 years i've used that router without setting anything up.  i use Cisco VPN for work on my work pc behind the same network.
 
do i have to configure anything to connect to any of the airvpn routers?

actually, you're connecting just fine.  it's the route checking that's failing.

 

if you're using the network lock then you'll be safe to disable the route checking feature.  Then it should stay connected.

thanks for the reply.

 

the network lock is also not enabled.  i don't have any AV.  can't think of what else to check.

 

how can i get past this?

You can disable route checking.  Should work just fine.

what exactly does route checking do and who might want it enabled?

 

i didn't see anything specific to route checking in the settings, but i unchecked "check if tunnel works".  this seemed to have no effect though.
