L2TP over IPSec Stopped Working w/o Any Changes?


I called ZyXel Support today, got a tech online for help, he says wait a minute, left and never came back while staying connected to my computer for over 20min, i wrote to him on AnyDesk, he moved the mous but never answered...Not sure if he fell asleep or something lol
Anyhow, i noticed L2TP over IPSec from Windows Client no longer works for any of my ZyWall USG20w routers..I believe these don't work wotj CHAP ver 2?
I deleted the default VPN settings and created a new one, getting the same error which are attached to this message, hoping someone can shed some light

Hi NSIT,
no post attachments as far as i can see. Sorry
Anyway: you said
i noticed L2TP over IPSec from Windows Client no longer works for any of my ZyWall USG20w routers
would you please try to elaborate a bit more with info your setup? The usual stuff...- which windows version
- which firmware version of USG20W
- if your USG20W is behind a NAT or public IP configured
- If you can connect to your device from another OS (iOS/Androd)

Hi, thank you for your reply!
I added the missing attachments
Windows version 21H2 on Remote Computer.
USG20w Firmware version is: 3.30(BDR.9) / 1.17 / 2016-11-22 10:05:22
I can connect fine with Windows 7 running as a VM

Can you share your win10 PC's L2TP properties? Like the below screenshot of my PC.

Hi, i believe the old ZyWall USG20w does not support CHAP v2?
I tried both CHAP v2, CHAP, or Both...No Change!0 -
Oh~ Have you tried PAP only?0
-
Even tried PAP, i can connect fine from a Win 7 client but since ver 21H2 of Windows, none of my customers can use L2TP over IPSec for VPN0

Many others having the issue...

Anyone? Is this due to the fact that routers with ver 3.xx firmware behind a NAT are not compatible with Ms Chap ver2 ?0
-
It seems your firmware version(3.XX) is too old, it doesn't support MS-CHAP v2.

It was working fine until Windows ver 21H2...1
