f.

In the Hash Alg menu, select SHA-1.

g. In the Encapsulation menu, select Tunnel.

h. Leave the Authentication Protocol (AH) checkbox unchecked.

7. Save the VPN Client Settings.

From the File menu at the top of the Security Policy Editor window, select Save.

After you have configured and saved the VPN client information, your PC will automatically
open the VPN connection when you attempt to access any IP addresses in the range of the
remote VPN router’s LAN.

8. Check the VPN Connection.

To check the VPN Connection, you can initiate a request from the remote PC to the DG834G
v3’s network by using the “Connect” option in the NETGEAR ProSafe menu bar. The
NETGEAR ProSafe client will report the results of the attempt to connect. Since the remote
PC has a dynamically assigned WAN IP address, it must initiate the request.

To perform a ping test using our example, start from the remote PC:

a. Establish an Internet connection from the PC.

b. On the Windows taskbar, click the Start button, and then click Run.

c.

Type

ping -t 192.168.3.1

, and then click OK.
