I'm trying to connect to my office VPN from home. One small problem: my home desktop uses Vista (64-bit, Ultimate edition). On Vista, you're supposed to set up a VPN like so:

  • Open the control panel
  • Click on Network
  • Click on "Connect to a Network"
  • Configure a new connection of type "Office"

The problem is, when I click on the link for "Connect to a Network", nothing happens.

Can anyone suggest how I should go about troubleshooting this? (Or am I better off just upgrading to Windows 7?)
