W5100 problem connecting to remote server

Question

I am connecting an LPC1768 to a WIZ5100. I can connect to a host on my local subnet, but when I attempt to connect to a remote host the connection fails. I see the ARP to the gateway and the gateway responds, but for some reason the connection is never established. I am able to telnet to the remote host via the same connection that the 5100 is using without any problems. The IP is 192.168.1.9 for the 5100. The IP of the server I am able to connect to is 192.168.1.4 and the IP of the server I am not able to connect to is 109.73.92.84 I can ping the 5100 from the local network. I am able to properly connect and send and receive from the local server. I am not able to send and receive ONLY from a remote server. I disconnect the 5100 and set the IP of my PC 192.168.1.9 and the connection to the remote server is Ok Do you have any suggestion to do ? There is un upgrade firmware to solve this problem ? Tank’s

I can give you a further indication, I think the problem may be related to NAT because using a VPN connection is working properly

Hi, I am also having same problem. I applied all the noted comments from here to my system (setting gateways etc.,) but I am still having problem with connection. How did you solve connecting problem with VPN? I am not familiar with VPN environment. Could you give me detailed guide on how you solved the problem? Thank you very much!! Regards, Kim
