Since Tuesday 3rd September 2024 I am unable to connect to my company Cisco AnyConnect VPN.
I was able to previously, last successful connection on Monday 2nd September 2024. I can connect to the VPN on other connections such as office WiFi and mobile hotspot. Company IT have confirmed there have been no changes on their end. I am able to connect other devices to home TalkTalk WiFi. I have tried wireless and wired connections to TalkTalk hub without success.
I can see there have been similar cases in recent weeks (https://community.talktalk.co.uk/t5/Broadband/VPN-connection-issue/m-p/3063029, https://community.talktalk.co.uk/t5/Fibre/Connecting-to-company-VPN/m-p/3062701)
WiFi Hub Router firmware is SG4K100202
I have updated my community profile with everything except my landline number, which I cannot access as I am currently getting an error when I try to log into my main TalkTalk account.
If a new router is a potential solution, I would be happy to receive one.

I am also having the same issue, was able to last connect on Friday 13th but come Monday and today I can’t connect - TalkTalk only advised to factory reset router which hasn’t worked.

Update / correction on the Cisco AnyConnect client error message: there are multiple web / VNS addresses (assume these are for VPN servers? Not sure how it all works), it tries to connect to the first address, then it says "Failed contacting <company vns address>", then it cycles through the others trying to connect, and finally an error box pops up saying "Could not connect to server. Please verify internet connectivity and server address."
I am able to connect via mobile hotspot so I have confidence that the server address is correct. The issue seems to be with TalkTalk internet connectivity.

Hi Chris, I've switched it off for an hour, now back on and I am still unable to connect to the company VPN.

Hi kasakaa,
Can you switch your router off and leave it off for at least 30 minutes, then switch back on and retest. If you are then still experiencing problems please let us know

Hi @kasakaa
Alas, I can't test VPNs using the IKEv2/IPsec protocol as I have been unable to find any free VPN servers using this protocol. There @Michelle-TalkTalk and the TT DEvices team will assist you.

Morning,
I'm sorry to hear this. Our Devices Manager is currently investigating this for us and has asked if you could provide the below info.
what steps have been taken to ensure this is not an IT issue?
Developer/SW version of the VPN.
Please share some screenshots etc (via a Private Message of what you are seeing when you try to access the VPN)
Thanks
Michelle

I have tested all of the free VPNs that I could with V202 & V174 before then and they all worked fine. What VPN protocol is this Cisco VPN client using? What is the router's firewall level set to, it should be on medium?
