Change VPN Pass-Through Settings
This feature is available only in Brazil, Russia, India, and China (the BRIC region).
When Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled in the modem router, the router filters encrypted tunnel
packets through NAT, causing these packets to become invalid. VPN pass-through allows encrypted tunnel
packets to go through without being filtered and is enabled by default for IPSec, PPTP, and L2TP packets.
Do not disable VPN pass-through for IPSec, PPTP, or L2TP unless a specific reason exists.
To change the VPN pass-through settings:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
