RE: VPN Failing after SBS connection

I was trying to download from the server.
After I connect via vpn I am able to browse all computers on the corporate
LAN.
When I try to download a file, it does not download; In fact it seems as
though I only have about a minute before the connection decides to stop
working. If I try to download a file real quick, it quits working at that
time - If I browse the LAN for a little bit then it quits working after about
a minute or two. At this point I have no ability to browse the internet or
lan.
I have not been able to check other computers yet - I will after I get this
one working.
Thanks
Paul
