      Hi everybody i´m wondering a bit about my IPSec Tun.

      Here is my config Lan on the Main Site: 192.168.0.0/24 255.255.255.0
      Lan on the Remote Site: 192.168.1.0/24 255.255.255.0

      And this works!

      IP Sec is configured with static IP´s.

      But after the 24h reconnect by my ISP

      The Tun has gone and not started again.

      Anyone could help?

        Do you have dynamic IPs on your WANs?

          Hi Hoba,

          first: thx for that reply.

          After 3 h of debugging i found out whats going on:

          I replaced an older Linksys WRT54 GL with an embedded pfsense and keep using it as "switch".
          But i forgot to turn of the keepalive check of the PPTP VPN on the Linksys.
          So it restarted after 5 min. again and again.

          Now the tunnel is stable. And my users are happy. Finally puuuhhhh

          I´ll keep an eye on this for about 4 more hours but i think i solved the Problem.

          After all that trouble i forgot to say: pfsense on embedded systems is such a great product. keep on with that outstanding work.

          Chris
