You probably need to disable Parallels' network ports (System Preferences / Network / Network Port Configurations).

From what I've researched is that this version will not work with Broadband/EVDO connection. It will work via ethernet or wireless connection only. I heard Cisco is working on fixing this.

Make sure you have the most recent version. I connect via EVDO and use Cisco VPN without a problem.

Workaround! - mitsu1

If you disable all the other network devices other than your EVDO modem, then the Cisco client appears to connect stably. Basically, go to System Preferences -> Network, Configure, Show->Network Port Configurations, and uncheck every network port except for the EVDO device. I have a sneaking suspicion that if there are other networks available, the client attempts to verify the network connectivity via one of the other networks (rather than the EVDO/PPP device) and it times out the connection.

Workaround - narrowed the issue down - mitsu1

It appears that the main issue with the VPN client not working with EVDO (or any PPP modem) is NAT. If you have any NAT device active (i.e., using Internet Connection Sharing or Parallels NAT) this VPN client fails if you're using PPP for your internet connection. The workaround, therefore, is to disable any devices using NAT (Internet Connection Sharing and/or Parallels NAT).

This did the trick for me. I can now use the Cisco VPN without it disconnecting after 5s with the 422 error. The only port I needed to disable was "Parallels NAT". I'm guessing that the Cisco VPN client detects NAT and will kill the connection to prevent sharing. Crafty.

Perfect.

I needed to disable the Parallels NAT and once again, PPP/VPN was fine.

This definitely does work w/ EVDO or in my case, Treo w/ USBModem software

Thank you so very much, Parallels NAT was the problem. Once disabled, my VPN is happy!
