Default Problems Transitioning from FVS318 to FVG318

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

I replaced our FVS318 with an FVG318. I also use the Prosafe VPN Client to connect. I could connect & access our entire network - daya, servers, etc. with the FVS318. With the FVG318 I cannot.

The client connects with no problem - the tunnel is being established. I can ping all devices on the network - servers, printers, etc but can access no files. Nothing has changed on the network. It is the same user and laptop as with the FVS318. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

My FVG318 has issues resolving names over the VPN via NETBIOS. On some of the older VPN routers (FWAG114) there is a checkmark available for enabling NETBIOS over the VPN. It is not there on the FVG318.
My clients connect from El Paso to Tucson, and as soon as I connected the FVG318, they had sporadic issues accessing names of PC's & servers via DNS. Went back to the FWAG114 and problems went away.
There is a Firmware update dated 10/2/07 that relates to NETBIOS that might address it.
I hope this helps!

Netbios resolve via router is always been a issue to begin with.

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I finally uninstalled & reinstalled the VPN Client, went through the config steps again, and it's working. I think that the VPN client had become corrupt.
