The RV042 does not support IPSec/L2TP. More importantly, it cannot function as a VPN client so there is no place to enter a username or password. It is strictly a VPN server for IPSec Gateway to Gateway, IPSec VPN client access and PPTP client access. This document describes how VPN Tracker can be used to establish a connection between a Macintosh running Mac OS X and a Linksys RV042/RV082 VPN router. The Linksys RV042/RV082 gateway is configured as a router connecting a company LAN to the Internet.

Linksys Wired Router :: Using RV042 As Layer 3 Clear Gateway For Comcast EDI?

Feb 7, 2013

Comcast installed a new fiber 10M EDI internet connection in our facility the other day and found out it is our responsibility to provide a layer 3 gateway to map the internet connection to the 14 public IP addresses they assigned to us. We are using RV042 for our existing networks with a T1 we had.
Will the RV042 provide the gateway function to route the single IP address comcast provided to the 15 public IP addresses? If so , can you provide the configuration example on this process?

Linksys Wired Router :: RV082 Gateway 2 Gateway VPN Can't Ping

Jul 26, 2012

We have a VPN setup between two Cisco RV082 routers, the VPN status shows as connected however I can't ping the other network. I am unable to ping between routers, let alone ping computers behind those routers.
We have 2 branches, branch 1 is on a static IP and branch 2 is Dynamic. I am able to connect via QuickVPN from Branch 2 to Branch 1 and remote desktop to computers, however have yet to VPN/remote desktop in the opposite direction.
To me it seems like a firewall issue at branch 2, but what's causing this. Also they are currently running 2 differnet firmware version not sure if this would cause a problem.

Cisco Routers :: RV042 Gateway To Gateway Tunnels Not Reconnecting

Apr 11, 2013

I have two Cisco RV042 Routers, they are being used to connect two offices, i have created a standard gateway to gateway connection, fixed public ip addresses on both sides and everything works fine, except when the tunnel gets disconnected, it does not connect back automatically, i have to log into either router console and click the connect button to get the tunnel working again, this is really annoying since it happens once or twice a day at least.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V4.3 / Error - Wrong Gateway Input After Firmware Upgraded

Aug 14, 2011

I have upgraded the firmware on my Linksys BEFSR41 V4.3 router. On this router i used Statis IP (so DHCP enabled). This worked fine on my network, until this upgrade. Now when i try to ad another static IP , or when i want to change something in the Routing-tab, i get this message ' Wrong Gateway Input! It should be the same subnet with WAN IP'. Strange because i haven't changed anything in the settings.I already did a complete reset on the router, still the same problem.

Cisco VPN :: Linksys WRT54G To RV042 (Client To Gateway) Access

Apr 12, 2011

We recently upgraded from a Linksys WRT54G router to a Cisco RV042 to gain 'gateway-to-gateway' automated VPN access. However, we are unable to get 'client to gateway' access working.
With the Linksys WRT54G we used a 'username' 'password' pair for remote client authenication. This worked for both Windows and Mac OS X users using the built-in PPTP client. We found we had to set 'encryption' value to 'none' on the client side.
I am confused by the setup screens on the RV042. It looks like I must setup a 'tunnel' (VPN->Client to Gateway), there is (VPN->VPN Client Access) where I can enter a username/password, and also (VPN->PPTP Server) where another username/password pair can be entered. I have tried all sorts of combinations but 'no love'. I am particularly mystified by the (VPN->Client to Gateway) settings for 'Remote Client Setup'; the client can be calling in from anywhere and there is an option for 'Dynamic IP + Email Address' but I'm not sure how that maps onto the client (do they use the email address as their account name?). I have also looked at defining a 'Group VPN' where I am given other options. But nothing works from the client.
I just need to come up with some setup that works, that I can document to both PC and Mac users at a miniumum.

Cisco Routers :: Quickvpn / Client To Gateway Vpn Rv042 Can Only Ping Router?

Jan 27, 2012

I am setting up remote access using an RV042 router. Using quickvpn or a client-to gateway vpn and shrewsoft client, I can only access/ping the LAN side of the remote router and one machine on the remote network. The PPTP server and native Windows 7 connection provide access to all machines on the remote network.I have 2 possible reasons for this and would like to find the real reason:
1) The remote RV042 is behind another router, and that router restricts access other than the PPTP traffic.
2) The VPN tunnels other than PPTP only allow access to the remote LAN side of the router and remote machines that have the remote router defined as their gateway in the IP configuration.

Cisco Routers :: RV042 502 Bad Gateway CGI Was Not CGI / 1.1 Compliant

Mar 31, 2013

I've got half a dozen RV042 routers in various locations. They are running v4.0.0.07. Seemingly randomly, I got the 502 Bad GatewayThe CGI was not CGI/1.1 compliant. error when attempting to log into the web interface with google chrome (same with IE too). This happens from the LAN side. Weihong driver download for windows. I actually didn't notice it until my Opsview monitoring software threw up a critical when it didn't get an http response. The router is otherwise actually working just fine.Since the first occurrence, more of my routers have developed the same error.
I've tried different browsers, clearing caches, though I'm not surprised those efforts were fruitless, as there is clearly a problem even when no browser is involved (nagios). The nagios http check also returns a 502 Bad Gateway.

Cisco VPN :: QuickVPN - Gateway Not Responding - RV042?

Oct 28, 2011

I'm running Cisco QuickVPN on a clients laptop (Windows 7). Windows firewall is disabled because McAfee SaaS is running.I sometimes have the issue that the initial connection attempt comes back with 'Gateway not respoding' during the network verification process. You close the program, you open it again and it works. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 tries. Today I have the issue that my client tried it like 20 times including several reboots and it's just not working. I tried it from my own computer and it connected fine on the 2nd try.I'm thinking that it might be time-out thing, that the VPN client doesn't receive a response fast enough? I know my clients home internet is darn slow.

Cisco VPN :: RV042 Establish VPN Gateway Connection

May 31, 2012

I have successfully connected two RV042s to establish a VPN gateway to VPN gateway connection. I have the follow questions:
1. I would like to keep the VPN tunnel connection time indefinite. Is it sufficient by checking the 'Keep-Alive' box on the VPN -> Gateway To Gateway -> Advance page? Or, I have to ping the RV042 periodically?
2. Do the 'Phase 1/Phase 2 SA Life Time' (on VPN -> Gateway To Gateway page) settings have any impact on keeping the VPN connection time indefinite? What are the optimal values for them?
3. Is there an API, command, or script to replace a manual clicking on the 'CONNECT' button to establish the VPN tunnel from the VPN -> Summary page? Or, is there a way to accomplish this at power up?
4. Is there a way to establish a VPN tunnel without going through login and clicking the 'CONNECT' button? (Auto connect at power up?)

Cisco Routers :: Set Up RV042 As VPN Gateway For Client

Aug 29, 2011

I set up an RV042 as a VPN gateway for a client a year ago. It is running firmware 1.3.12.19-tm (Feb 13 2009 13:03:21). I created a new certificate. When I download the client certificate, It comes as a .zip file. One the can not be opened by a zip utlity (windows, Winzip or 7 zip). It looks like I can just rename the file to a .pem file, but I want to make sure that is right. They were getting QuickVPN timeouts, but that looks like it was fixed in 1.3.13.

Cisco Routers :: RV082 Gateway To Gateway VPN Not Resolving Remote DynDns

Feb 14, 2013

I've got two RV082's connected. Each has a dynamic IP (changes typically every few weeks). I've configured the tunnels on both ends with a local and remote 'Remote/Local Security Gateway Type' of 'Dynamic IP + Domain Name(FQDN) Authentication'.If I look at the VPN Summary tunnel status, it shows an IP address of 'mydomain.dyndns.org 0.0.0.0' under the 'Remote Gateway' column heading. The Tunnel Test 'Connect' button is N/A.I can resolve both of the mydomain.dyndns.org entries on both sides of each VPN using the Diagnostic DNS lookup tool within each router. If I hardwire a fixed IP address for the Local and Remote Gateway everything works just fine. VPN is good.
I just can't seem to get the 'mydomain.dyndns.org' function to work. It appears the router can't resolve the dynamic IP from the domain names on each of the routers.

Cisco Routers :: RV220W Gateway-to-Gateway Inter VLAN Routing?

Jul 6, 2012

I picked up a pair of RV220W's and before I spent loads of time at a remote site, I figured I'd go through some VPN testing at home to make sure I could get it setup properly. What this means is I've plugged the Internet uplink into a switch, then from the switch into both routers & configured them (using unique static IP's for each) from there. For what its worth: While I have some IT experience, I don't have strong networking experience.
I setup several VLAN's on the local RV220W, and the end result is to make it so that an asset at the remote site with an IP in any of the ranges (192.168.121.0/24, 192.168.131.0/24, 192.168.141.0/24 and any future VLANs) can communicate with/access resouces at the local site. Likewise, an asset at the local site with an IP in any of the ranges (.121, .131, .141 + any future VLANs) should be able to reach the remote resources (currently just 192.168.181.0/24, but future VLANs as well).
This evening I tried to focus on the relevant VPN pages of the Administration Guide to get the VPN up. Leaving the defaults I got as far as establishing a link between both sites and it seems that things are working right: From the remote site (.181) I can access the local site (.121, .131, .141); and from the local site I can at least ping resources (a laptop) on the remote site. (Yay!)
However, when I physically connected an asset that had a 192.168.121.X, 192.168.131.X and 192.168.141.X IP addresses to the remote RV220W (which is 192.168.181.0/24), I couldn't see it from the remote or local sites.I assume this is expected. But I'm reaching out to the community to see what other possibilities might be available becuase networking is a weak area for me. I figured it might be something like a Static [or Dynamic] Route but I really am not 100% sure.

Cisco Routers :: Getting VPN Gateway To Gateway With NAT For Multiple Subnets / RV082?

Feb 11, 2012

Client To Gateway Vpn Rv042 Software

I have a pair of RV082 routers and I'd like to configure gateway to gateway VPN tunnel as described in a cookbook, 'How to configure a VPN tunnel that routes all traffic to the Remote Gateway,' (file name Small_business_router_tunnel_Branch_to_Main.doc). I followed this cookbook and found that my while the Main office has internet connectivity, the branch subnet doesn't have internet connectivity.
Routing does behave as advertised, where all traffic does go to the main office. However, the 192.168.1.0 subnet in the branch office does not get internet connectivity. I've read in other posts that the Main office router will only provide NAT for the local subnet, not the branch office subnet. Is there a way to configure the RV082 router to provide NAT for all subnets?
If not, which Cisco product will provide the VPN Tunnel connectivity as well as the NAT for all subnets? Can the RV082 be used as part of the final solution or are my RV082s a wasted expenditure?
Following is the configuration that I'd implemented, (real IP and IKE keys are bogus).

Introduction

Updated 8/8/12 - Added switch chip info

Doug Reid does most of SNB's VPN router reviews and he always dings products that don't include Gigabit Ethernet ports. So when he reviewed Cisco's last version of its go-to small business VPN router, the RV042 v3, that was among his few complaints.

Well, Doug and other Cisco RV042 fans can finally rejoice because Cisco quietly started shipping a Gigabit version last month, aptly named the RV042G Dual Gigabit WAN VPN Router. If you didn't look closely, you would mistake it for the 10/100 RV042. The only difference is the product name and number subtly screened on the top and front of its black plastic front panel bezel.

Otherwise, the RV042G is the same, measuring around 5' X 8' X 1.5' and with the same lights and ports shown below and power jack on the side. Cisco uses the same graphic for both the RV042 and RV042G in its manuals, so it's good enough for me.

There is still no cooling fan and there are still wall-mount screw slots on the bottom of its grey metal case.

The 042G's board is shown below, with the 042 v3 below it for comparison.

RV042G board
Updated 8/8/12 - Added switch chip info

The CPU and switch heatsinks are firmly attached, so I also need info from Cisco to identify the switch. Since a Broadcom BCM52612E 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver is visible, I'm guessing there is a Broadcom 5 port Gigabit switch handling the other five ports, a BCM5387, perhaps? Cisco said it's a Broadcom BCM53125M.

Features

The G's admin GUI provides access to the same feature set that Doug described in his v3 review. The v4.2.1.02 firmware dating from January 2012 has all the IPv6 features Doug described baked in.

Here's a rundown of the RV042G's features:

  • DHCP, Static, PPPoE, PPTP, Transparent bridge WAN types
  • DHCP server with MAC address reservation and multiple subnets
  • VLAN support with multiple subnets (4 port-based, no 802.1q support)
  • Dual-WAN with failover and load balance modes
  • Many-to-one and one-to-one NAT modes

A few missing features deserve some highlighting so you don't miss them. Neither the static nor triggered port forwarding features let you specify source and destination ports and L2TP VPNs aren't supported. So you'll need to use either Cisco's free but often-frustrating QuickVPN utility or grab third-party VPN client software such as TheGreenBow instead of using Win 7's built-in VPN options.

I was surprised to find that the RV042G is the only RV0XX series router to not support Cisco's optional ProtectLink Web feature. So you'll need to make do with the domain and keyword blocking features.

Since the G has Gigabit ports, I've shown the port setup screen below. Note that you can force speed to 10 or 100 Mbps full or half duplex. But if you want Gigabit operation, you need to leave the Auto Negotiation box checked (the default). Note also that there are no jumbo frame controls. I didn't check for jumbo frame operation because they aren't really necessary any more with today's computer architectures and network adapters.

The Firefox admin GUI problems Doug pointed out in his review were fixed long ago and I had no problems accessing the admin interface with Firefox 14. Since Doug didn't provide a lot of admin screenshots in his review, I've put some of the key screens and commentary in the gallery below.
