L2TP IPSec VPN not working from W10 (other Windows connects OK)

Wed Mar 25, 2020 3:23 pm

Good day!
RB2011UiAS ROS 6.46.4

I've set up a VPN connection to my corporate gateway RB2011 with L2Tp and IPSec
My client is W10 PC and when I connect VPN nothing happens (Connecting...) after entering credentials.

Strage thing is that another client with Windows PC connects sucessfully


L2TP config:
/ppp profile
add bridge=bridge-local change-tcp-mss=yes dns-server=<DNS1 IP Addr>,<DNS2 IP Addr> local-address=<Core GW IP> name=l2tp remote-address=vpn.it.adm \
use-compression=yes use-encryption=yes
add bridge=bridge-local change-tcp-mss=yes dns-server=<DNS1 IP Addr>,<DNS2 IP Addr> local-address=<Core GW IP> name="l2tp-2 (sub)" remote-address=\
vpn.it.sub use-compression=yes use-encryption=yes
/ppp secret
add name=user123 password=1234567 profile=l2tp service=l2tp
add name=user456 password=1234567 profile="l2tp-2 (sub)" service=l2tp

Re: L2TP IPSec VPN not working from W10 (other Windows connects OK)

Wed Mar 25, 2020 3:58 pm

Few days before I had the same issue (Windows 10 build 1909). Nothing was changed on the router side. Restarting router had no effect. I connected using my second PC with older build of Win10 with success. Next day everything were fine using any of my PC...

Can possibly be two scenarios, one is a register change if any of the devices are behind NAT.

Other is you need to connect using start->settings->VPN->the VPN you want to connect and click on connect there

Yes I agree it is this. Common Windows 10 problem. Usually after connecting once this long-winded way, you can connect again via the network connections popup in the corner.

Hi,

I'm having similar problem. Some W10 do not connect, other OS yes, like mac or mikrotik.

After some testing, if I disable IPSEC in mikrotik, it works with user/pass.

Using IPSEC, the behavior is that the W10 try to connect, the SA is established but no first packet received. In the SA, the W10 try to connect from 1701 and thats the reason of not finishing the connection and no packet is receive. Other OS try to use a different source port, for example mac use 52948, and it works. I do not now why W10 is not changing origin port for a different like W10 is the client and not the server.

Any ideas how to solve this?

thanks.

I am having the same problem - any solution for that?
I have 2 different mikrotik routers, on both there is L2TP servers with IPSec configured. I can connect to both with iPhone. However, only to one I can connect with my Windows 10 client. There was a problem before with Windows 10 (after some udpdate), and I couldn't connect with Windows to any of it, but Microsoft fixed it, but now I can connect to only one of them. What amy be the issue?

After a recent update on windows 10, IPsec connections would fail... This was later patched...
So make sure your operating system has all the recent updates...

I am aware about that. I have all windows updates. What is funny, I have another L2TP/IPSec server on another MikroTik and it didn't work for some time. But after recent updates it works again. However, on the server I am talking about it is still the same..
