OK - I've searched adn can't find the answer - HELP!

I recently added an Airport extreme router to my home system to replace the wireless network I had. Now my VPN doesn't work.

I need to connect to my windows box at work (yeah it sucks but that's what I gotta do)

I use a cisco VPN client (that still connects) and MS RDC client. If I connect directly to the DSL modem, everything's peachy but connected through the router and I get a cannot connect error in RDC (VPN client's still good)

I'm - obviously - not a network engineer so could someone PLEASE help me out?

Thanks,

ETR
 
It seems that your DSL modem is a router already and your Airport Extreme is set to that same function. Try setting your Airport Extreme to "bridge mode" (internet tab of config utility)
