Re: [FW1] Securemote Issue....

I've seen this with various vpn products and in my case its always been
the nic, pop the nic and that has always worked for me.  Try doing
a tracroute on the laptop while at home and see which adapter its using.

I would suggest that you either make sure that SecuRemote is bound only to dial-up adapters or release the IP address from the NIC when you bring the machine home.
