Hi to all,
I really spent a lot of time trying to solve my problem without any solution, hope I can really find someone that will give me a nice tip. so..
I was starting a mounth ago with a pptpd debian server on my office, everything worked very well from the beginning and I was able to:
1 - ping from my Windows 7/8 client all hosts on the remote LAN
2 - reach every single service,share or anything else on the remote LAN
problem was that every time I tried to start a transfer from a shared folder on the remote LAN I got the transfer bar lagging and if the file was large about more than 8 MB the desktop was freezing for sure and restarted after some minutes, THIS NEVER HAPPENED IF I TRIED TO TRANSFER DIRECTLY FROM THE SERVER THAT HOST THE PPTP DAEMON, in fact transfering from this server are very fast and stable.
I TRIED EVERYTHING but searching on the web I think that is something with MTU parameters but nothing seems changing the situation.. so I ended up and decided to remove the pptpd server and try to do the same thing with OPEN VPN, thinking that was some strange issue with pptp protocol... but even with openvpn I'm able to:
1 - ping from my Windows 7/8 client all hosts on the remote LAN
2 - reach every single service,share or anything else on the remote LAN
BUT PROBLEM WITH TRANSFER FROM HOSTS IN LAN STILL REMAINS!! please give me a tip cause I really tried everything!
the only thing that I found is that with Windows xp this won't freeze never, maybe is something with the Windows 7/8 drivers but I tried several machines in several networks with same problem, and I have already tried to change the router with another model with no results:(
