Hey guyz,
before updating my n900 it was possible to connect to a vpn via wlan using the vpnc client ( in my case using the vpnc gui,too )
without having an internet connection working. ( i have to login to vpn to access the internet )
after updating vpn does not work without having a internet connection.
my way to connect before update:
connect to wlan -> type wep key ( or having saved in connections )
-> start vpnc gui -> select profile -> push "connect" button.
now when i push on "connect" button it sais, that "xxx.xxx.xxx" can not be resolved...
when i try the connection via internet ( umts ) i works, so the profile file is working fine..
an other question is, that usually, connecting to this wlan withoug using a vpn connection you will get a "landing page" when starting the browser ( laptop windows or linux )..
using the n900 with latest firmware this page doesnt show.
i didnt try this before updating, so i cant say if there changed something in this point.
i`d enjoy gettin some hints on thies one.
thx

If I recall correctly there was a bug with vpnc and flashing to the new firmware that would break wlan after the flash.
