Problem

When connecting to VPN network using FortiClient users occasionally are unable to make the connection as the VPN client seems to be malfunctioning. The connection gets stuck at Status: 98% and they get disconnected. This problem appears to be affecting FortiClient version 5.3.xxx as well 5.4.1.0840 running on Windows 8 and 10 that we are aware of.

It’s s been determined that there is a problem with the Windows operating system WAN miniport driver and not specifically with a Forticlient issue.


Remedies

To fix Wan miniport problems as well as VPN and dial-up error code 720 and similar PPP errors follow these steps (worked for us)

1. Install WAN miniport repair tool
2. Restart computer
3. Run Install WAN miniport installer tool
4. Restart computer and test VPN access.

Here are some ways to fix the virtual adapter ( that worked for some folks):

1. There were no Miniports installed on the computer. This can be determined by going to Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager, View – Show hidden devices. Under Network Adapters there should be a series of WAN Miniport: IP, IPv6 PPPOE, PPTP, IKEv2, etc. These ports are often used for different adapters different VPN clients. If the Miniports are not visible, they will have to be reinstalled.
Download devcon.exe. This is a utility from Microsoft. When that is done you can find the different miniport driver names associated to your OS in the following file c:windowsinfnetrasa.inf. This path is for Windows XP and it will be different for other OS.”

Windows 8 file locations is C:Program Files (x86)Windows Kits8.1Toolsx64&gt

Here are the command lines I used in XP to reinstall the needed Miniports.

“devcon.exe install c:windowsinfnetrasa.inf MS_PppoeMiniport”

“devcon.exe install c:windowsinfnetrasa.inf MS_NdisWanIp”

“devcon.exe install c:windowsinfnetrasa.inf MS_PptpMiniport”

“devcon.exe install c:windowsinfnetrasa.inf MS_L2tpMiniport”

You will probably need to reinstall your VPN client software or hardware driver that was not functioning before. This will reinitialize binding to the Miniports.

2. To make VPN client work with windows 8.x or Windows 10 you can try the following:

From an elevated command prompt run the following:

netcfg -v -u ms_ndiswanip
netcfg -v -u ms_ndiswanipv6

Reboot the computer. Windows will detect the devices are missing and reinstall it automatically, likely transparently. Check device manager to make sure they are back in there.

Once the PC boots up check the fortissl adapter, it may say device missing still. You should now see an ISDN adapter in the list. Select it and enter 1 for the number, uncheck ‘ missing device’ ensuring only the ISDN option is selected. Click OK and try to connect to the SSL VPN.

Once the computer gets restarted the sslvpn connection should work again.

If not, check the fortissl adapter, it may say device missing. You should now see an ISDN adapter in the list. Select it and enter 1 for the number, uncheck ‘ missing device’ ensure only the ISDN option is selected. Click OK and try to connect to the SSL VPN.

Check device manager: “WAN Miniport (IP)” and “WAN Miniport (IPv6)” should be gone.
