Cisco EasyVPN @ Windows 8/8.1/10

Small Business router like Cisco RV320 only provides EasyVPN, not Anyconnect nor QuickVPN.
But it has a problem. OS above Windows 8 don’t support EasyVPN. (And it can’t be connected with cellphones. Cellphones only can connect to these routers with PPTP and IPSec.

Prerequisites.

  1. SonicWALL Global VPN Client
  2. EasyVPN Client (x86 / x64)

Firstly install SonicWALL VPN Client and then setup EasyVPN Client.
SonicWALL is needed because without it VPN client only shows 433 error.

Then open regedit and modify DisplayName at SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CVirtA under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

32bit
From: @oem8.ifn,%CVirtA_Desc%;Cisco Systems VPN Adapter
To: Cisco Systems VPN Adapter

64bit
From: @oem8.ifn,%CVirtA_Desc%;Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows
To: Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows

If you did all these things and still get some error, reset whole network settings with “netcfg -d”and reconfigure network.
