I am facing an issue while I am trying to connect to my office VPN simultaneously using two different laptops. If I try to connect VPN at the same time only one of the laptop is getting connected to the VPN and the other one is dropping off.

I am using D-Link DIR-601 Wireless-N 150 Home Router.

I need to set it up urgently as it is impacting my work.
Can anyone please help me with the proper router settings?

Thanks in Advance !!!
