The error message is:

VPN connection
You were disconnected by the communication device. Try
reconnecting. If the problem continues, verify your settings.

I live in two location (Folkestone and London) it works in Folkestone but not London. I have in both locations Virgin Media 10mb package (London D-Link route – wifi “n”
Folkestone I can’t remember but I know it is not “n”)

In London I tried using my Apple Airport Express route but that don’t work either.

I am at a loss!

I have started to uses the ibVPN on the iPad and it is wonderful but I have been unable to get it to work on my MacbookPro (Snow Leopard upto date). I have follow your instructions. Try for 2hours on all 3 vpn services (us1.ibvpn.com, us2.ibvpn.com, us3.ibvpn.com).

The odd thing is that the iPad work in my local coffee shop wifi but not on my home wifi. Is there a setting I have switch on that is brokening the connection.

Many thanks for your podcast and keep up the good work.

Hi David, thanks for another great episode. The podcast always delivers on excellent tech/gagdget news, views, reviews etc…

Just wanted to say how nice it is that (despite the fact that you are very polite) you dont start the podcast with an apology – anymore – and it has not happened for a very long time…which can only mean one thing: the podcast is truly consistent! It’s great. My only gripe in the past was this; and at the time it was disappointing. However thanks for your efforts to keep it absolutely regular, either with show notes or for show notes to follow later. Either way, the fact that it is now a reliable podcast has made a huge difference and certainly adds to the strength of this unique podcast.

Hi David,

Comment on Episode 38 – I Wish it could be Xmas Everyday! by Mark

You asked for suggestions for a new router. I suggest the AVM Fritz!box 7270, which I use. It does everything, or almost: built in VOIP, DECT, wireless printing, NAS, built in multi line answer machine. For example I have it set so when away all calls to my home landline are routed via VOIP to my iPhone etc. There were a few initial issues but these were all sorted out with the last firmware update. The latest beta firmware even supports IPV6.

Thanks for another great show…

Comment on Episode 37 – Something for the weekend? by James

I am another listener who complained a lot about the podcast not being regular. Also commented on the fact that when the sun comes out the podcasts disappear (it became the regular reason for not doing a podcast) and for a while the tech/geek stuff seemed to disappear too. Anyway mate its really good to note that the podcast is now consistent and full of geek goodness. Good on ya mate for keeping the podcast regular and for covering some ‘real’ tech news/themes. The podcast is back to its best and long may it continue.
