Comment on VPN Error: This connection requires an active Internet Connection – Windows Vista by Steve Jacobs

Thank you for posting this. Like you, I was growing tired of opening up the network connections window to establish the VPN connection and knew there would be some solution somewhere. Your post saved me some time, thanks.

FYI – I was seeing the exact same problem on Windows 7, not Vista. On Win 7, your directions are almost exactly right, with one difference. On Windows 7, rather than clicking on ‘Manage Network Connections’, the link now reads “Change Adapter Settings”.

Thanks again.

This also works on Windows 7. The “Manage network connections” has been renamed (why??) to “Change adapter settings”, but from there on it’s the same process.

Alternatively one can just type “Network Connections” in the start menu to bring up the
Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections window.

What clever idiot decided the public would be too confused by the phrase “Manage network connections”, and decided “adapter settings” would be clearer? Someone needs to get out of his or her echo chamber…

You don’t even need to reboot. Just disable the active adapter (wireless, LAN, etc.), re-enable it, and you’re good to go. Thanks for the solution.

Here is solution:
“goto SETUP section. then on the Right Pane click on “Antivirus and Antispyware protection”. the panel should be opened.
now in the “Web Access protection” click on “Configure…”
from the left Tree go to path : “Web access protection > HTTP > Web Browsers”
now you should see visual studio 8 “devenv.exe” in the list .
click on it twice till you see a cross sign in the box. ( Note on CROSS sign , not mark sign ! )”

And the most important: RESTART THE MODEM.
well done

Thank you! I’d been doing same as you were, just working around it, until I finally got frustrated and decided to fix it once and for all… One quick Google search, and you were the first hit! Problem solved!

Didn’t work None of them. I have found my solution after hours of searching on internet. I had to manualy edit SLN file project.sln and save it.

Instead of

VWDPort = “2869″
VWDDynamicPort = “true”

i had to write for example

VWDPort = “3000″
VWDDynamicPort = “false”

and save this file. If i edit the same values in Visual Studio, it did not work. Only manual edit of the file worked. Interesting, I do not get it. VS2005, WinXP SP2, Eset Smart Security.

It’s absolutely outrageous that the advanced options should be buried so deep! I’m just amazed you found it…
