Hi,

I'm trying to set up internet sharing to create a wireless network from the VPN via my computer so that I can connect to the VPN from other devices on my network that do not have configurable network settings. Everytime I turn internet sharing on, I cannot connect to the VPN and get the error The L2TP-VPN server did not respond. Try reconnecting. If the problem continues, verify your settings and contact your Administrator.. How can I configure my VPN connection to allow additional unverified devices to connect through this wireless network?

Thanks!

@kernowal Hello! Your use case may require setting up a "hosted network" using your computer's wireless network adapter. Please see this article [1] for example steps. I have not tested this, use at your own risk.
