Can reach server from some connections but not others

internetnetworkingvpn

I just set up the internet at my new apartment and I can no longer SSH into my office development server or reach some links on the network.

It is behind a VPN and the Cisco VPN client says its connecting fine, but I still cant seem to reach the link or SSH in.

I dont think the server/VPN is blocking me because I have always been able to login from random Starbucks and other WiFi connections. But now I can't from my home internet.

I am plugged directly into the Verizon modem so there is no router in the way. If run a traceroute to the server IP address it gets hungup way out in the Internet ether.

How can I further debug this. BTW we have no IT guy who manages our servers so I can't talk to him/her and also Verizon is absolutely clueless. I already spent hours on the phone with them.

UPDATE
Things that work

I can ping the Firewall fine (both on and off VPN)

I can ping the default gateway fine (both on and off VPN)

Traceroute (both on/off VPN) to both IPs always dies at the same place host-216-57-131-230.customer.veroxity.net (216.57.131.230) which is one of the providers to the colo place and also looks like it is undergoing a merger right now http://veroxity.com/

Best Answer

Just out of curiosity can you plug your machine into an Ethernet wired connection and try to VPN without using the wireless WIFI connection and see if that works. this of course is not a solution but some troubleshooting to isolate the problem.

if it is plugged in try disabling the wifi adapter on the machine during this test.
