Hello, I recently enabled the VPN feature of my swisscom internet box 2. I succeeded to connect to the vpn using my android phone and IKeV2, but i cannot do the same with my laptop running fedora 38. I'll attach you below the configuration i tried both in IKeV2 and l2pt. I tried some workaround to fix these kinds of things such as in [this post](https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/how-to-set-up-l2tp-ipsec-vpn-on-fedora-34/71321/16), but it didn't change anything, i was still not connecting IKeV2 config: ![](https://imageupload.io/ib/waweTZAEy7KDLNa_1694878056.png) l2pt config: ![](https://imageupload.io/ib/UHQ4RVDBuJlWegc_1694877723.png) ![](https://imageupload.io/ib/CNzK7PUSOB3JTrD_1694877723.png) ![](https://imageupload.io/ib/ZEbuxZ6SwaDbVC1_1694877723.png) Thanks in advance for any help!

Thank you for your answer, unfortunately I already saw all the relevant post and feed you gave me and none of them was useful in order to make my vpn work 😢

Hi @Schauldaschie47

You are testing the connection from external (i.E. hotspot on your phone) right? If not, please make sure to do so.

If that does not help, please consult your syslog (journalctl -xef) for errors.

Best,
