VPN Connectiviy Problem

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



I'm trying to sign on to my company's VPN from my home machine and having
some trouble. I'm using Win2K so the VPN capability is built in. I've added
the connection in Dialup Connections but when I try to connect, it instantly
comes back with the error:

"The connection failed because the modem (or other connecting device) was
not found. Please make sure that the modem or other connecting device is
installed."

I'm using DSL to access the internet and having no problems. I actually
think I know what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it. I have
another computer on my home network that is working with the VPN. That
machine has 2 network adapters, both for the same device but the second one
also says "Odyssey Network Services Miniport". The machine I'm having trouble
with only has 1 network adapter. How can I add the second adapter and get it
working with the odyssey service? I've tried searching all over and found
nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
