Symptoms

When you have the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client installed on a Surface Pro 3, you may experience one of the following symptoms:

  • If you try to connect to a wireless network by using the Cisco Network Access Manager (NAM), you cannot connect to the wireless network.

  • You can connect to an open (that is, unsecured) wireless network by using the Cisco Network Access Manager (NAM). However, you cannot use the Cisco NAM to connect to a wireless network that requires a password or other authentication.

  • If you use the Windows 8.1 Networks interface to connect to the wireless network, you can connect to the wireless network.


I was trying to log into work but had trouble making a VPN connection. I use Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client. This post describes how to fix the following error messages when using Windows 8 Pro:

  • AnyConnect was not able to establish a connection to the specified secure gateway. Please try connecting again.
  • The VPN client driver encountered an error. Please restart your computer or device, then try again.

The steps to fix this problem are as follows:

1. Edit a registry entry by running a program called regedit. Right-click on it and Run as administrator. Note that I use Start8, by Stardock, to have a Start button and menu. After you left-click on Run as administrator, your computer might ask you to enter the admin password.

2. Go to the appropriate VPN registry directory called ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesvpnva

3. Double left-click the DisplayName key.

An Edit String pop-up window will appear.

The text under the Value data: field on my computer looked like this.

@oem20.inf,%vpnva_Desc%;Cisco AnyConnect VPN Virtual Miniport Adapter for Windows x64

4. Change the field to

Cisco AnyConnect VPN Virtual Miniport Adapter for Windows x64

by removing all the text and characters that are on the left of the word Cisco.

...Cisco

The end result should look like this:

5. Left-click the ‘OK’ button.

6. Exit the Registry Editor

7. Run Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client and reconnect.

That’s all there is to it. Good luck!

It is different from what I had originally posted. I’m not really sure how or why it changed and I don’t have time to find out. I also updated to Cisco AnyConnect Secury Mobility Client Version 3.1.04066. As far as I can tell, the value of …
