Teamviewer VPN is not working

[mrfatboy]

Hello,

I'm trying to connect two computers using the latest version of Teamviewer.  I am able to make an initial VPN connection. The VPN dialog window opens and says the VPN is running. It gives me IP's for Local & Partner computers.

However, I can't PING the other computer and the shared folders do not show up in Windows Explorer.  I have tried turning off the windows firewall of both computers without any luck.

Are there ports that need to be opened up in the router? What else could I be doing wrong?


Both computers are Windows 7x64pro.  Latest Teamview 6 version.  1st computer has a linksys e2000 router (stock firmware) and the 2nd computer has a linksys WRT54GL (DDWRT firmware).


Could this be a router issue? Do I need to do anything special to set up the routers?

Doesn't anyone assist others on this forum?  Virtually every post I have read during my VPN searches, is either unanswered or extremely limited in content.  I will start assisting others as soon as I master TV. 

Repectfully,
