We had problems even making a connection with our Cisco VPN client until
we disabled the Venturi compression software. You can disable it
permanently by removing it from the Add/Remove Programs control panel or
take these steps first if you want to confirm that it's the culprit:

1. open VZAccess Manager
2. from pull-down menu select Tools-> Preferences
3. click on the Venturi tab
4. uncheck "Compress and accellerate WWAN connections"
5. click OK

q.v. http://www.venturiwireless.com/tech_support/FAQs.html esp. if the
uninstaller leaves some files behind.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for responding. Dell's laptops come with a Dell mobile
broadband software package that performs the same functions as VZAM
but it must be slightly different as I do not see any entries for
Venturi in my program list.

Additionally, I CAN browse network drives in the same exact setting by
simply changing the OS to XP professional SP2. I also know that it is
not a hardware issue, as I've got a dual install of XP and Vista on
the same laptop I'm using to test. That also eliminates the
possibility that's its related to account or drive security. It has
to be something to do with the way Vista handles security when in a
non-domain environment.

Also having the same exact problem but with sonicwall vpn instead of
cisco. I also don't have a venturi tab. Was there ever another fix
found for this problem?
