Hi
I am looking for an advice. I am in a situation where a friend is trying to connect to his office by VPN. The connection is successful but he cannot access his data folder. I believe the problem resides in the fact that his home router is leasing IPs in similar ranges as his office.
Example: his office gateway is 192.168.700.1/21 and his home router is 192.168.700.1/23
His data folder resides in a machine with IP 192.168.700.14/21, but there is some device in his house with IP 192.168.700.14/23. So every time he pings the .14, the one in his house answers, so he never gets to the data folder. If we scan in his machine with NS, the scanner shows the IP (.14) with its proper MAC address (home device) but with a correct DNS resolution (office machine name) because the VPN connection DNS point to the office. Those IPs that are not home-assigned appeared in NS with the MAC address of the VPN connection.
Is there any way to make NS find (scan) the office .14 IP?
