Hi - a niggly little problem that i'm sure someone will know the
answer to straight away.

I have an MS VPN used for connecting employees from home, Hotel etc.
Works sometimes, more often not though.

At our base here in Oxford I have a wireless Broadband connected to a
Netgear router - IP = 192.168.0.x

When connected the clients are V stable and outlook access is perfect.

However, If i go to the site resturaunt and use the free wireless
there (ip 62.232.223.x) I can connect fine to the VPN, can ping the
server but Outlook will not connect.

Internal LAN addresses - 10.0.0.x

Below are the results of IPCONFIG / ALL on both connections
