- I work from home and use cisco anyconnect VPN to get into my company’s network. I recently upgrade to a Netgear D6400 form a Netgear N300. For some reason when connecting using my new router via VPN it works for +-5min then the connection speeds drops to 0, does not disconnect the client though.

Generally speaking, there are two types of traffic policies when using Cisco AnyConnect: “split-tunnel-policy tunnelspecified” (routing LAN traffic through the tunnel while using the client’s own internet access for browsing the internet), and “split-tunnel-policy tunnelall” (routing ALL traffic through the tunnel – public and private).
I'm going to update my original post above, but I was able to (finally) resolve the issue and wanted to share the solution. Thanks to some Internet searching, I learned of some settings in the Frontier/Netgear DSL modem/routers that is (as far as I can tell) designed to aid in forwarding various services through the router/firewall. From there, I was able to track it to the 'ALG' setting in the Port Forwarding area of the modem/router firmware. Here's what I did:
- Login to the DSL modem/router via the web interface
- Click on 'Advanced' at the top menu
- Click on 'ALG' under the section to the left denoted by the red toolbox icon
- Remove the checkmark for IPSec and click 'Apply'
- Reboot the modem/router
After doing this, I was able to successfully connect using the Cisco VPN Client software- hope this helps the next poor soul that runs into this! Hopefully it will save you that many hours over many days of troubleshooting it took me..
EDIT: Additional note- my home DSL router/model is a Netgear 7550 model, while it appears that both of the employees were issued the (presumably newer) Netgear D2200D model. The VPN seemed to pass through the 7550 model without an issue, so this may be an issue that's model specific.
