Share home VPN connection with Avaya 4621

[japell]

After some process I was able to configure my Avaya 4621 phone to VPN to my corporate network...I am now able to use my phone from home. However my secure ID card only allows one connection so its either I connect my pc to the vpn or my phone. Short of asking my company for another ID and secure ID card, is there a way to share the vpn connection between the 4621 and personal pc? Just figured I'd ask to see if anyone has done this.

Thanks!

You could install IP Phone Manager Pro on your PC. Then use the PC VPN client. I too prefer to use the phone. However, in this case, the path of least resistance may be to do an all in one approach.

The only thing I can say regarding the IP PMPRO would be to invest in a decent headset and plug directly into the PC. Also, I've read on here that you should remove the Microsoft QOS Packet Scheduler to provide for better performance (not sure if that's true though).

Yes, I am doing that now...I currently use the Avaya Softphone with my current VPN connection with a usb headset but I hate wearing it. I like the convenience of using the hardphone. I will have to get another ID and secure ID card. Thanks anyway!!!
