Question VPN problems

I am trying to set up a VPN from my house into my office. I am using two 3-Com OfficeConnect Internet Forewall 25 units with the VPN Upgrade. The firewall in the house logs that the connection is being attempted but the one in the office never seems to see the attempt. I have a similar problem with a different twist when I use my laptop to VPN to the office. If I am on a Dial-Up Connection then the tunnel is OK and I can see my office LAN no probs, if I am in a hotel on a high spped network or at a friends house using their LAN then the tunnel is created but nothing will pass through it. I think that the Firewall to Firewall problem is something to do with the web proxy but I am not sure and could really use some help - I have already paid someone to try to sort it out and it cost me a lot (several hundred pounds) of money and he was a waste of space. I have no idea if using another network to VPN to the office is a similar problem or not but again please can someone help.

If you need any more information I will post whatever you require.

Please help, as this has been flattening my pea sized brain for about two months now and I think it's gone on holiday now!! to mars
