EXPLANATION
It is possible to use Talk2m/eCatcher along with other VPN services (like Cisco VPN, FortiClient etc.) but care is needed with TAP-Windows Adapters. These services may use the same "TAP-Windows Adapter" by changing the adapter's name. To be able to establish a VPN connection with eCatcher, the adapter name must be "Talk2m-eCatcher". Moreover, the other VPN service could remove the "TAP-Windows Adapter V9".
The following message could appear if there is a problem with the "TAP-Windows Adapter V9".
Cannot connect to Talk2MServer :> FATAL:Error: When using --ip-win32 netsh, if you have more than one TAP-Win32 adapter,you must also --dev-node
In this case, the TAP adapter name should be checked. The name "Talk2m-eCatcher" must not be changed.
If the adapter name is different;
it can be renamed by right-clicking --> rename or it is possible to run "renametap.vbs" from "C:\Program Files\eCatcherTalk2M\Talk2mVpnService\drivers".
If there is no TAP-Windows Adapter V9;
It is easy to install it by running “install.bat” under the same file path. Be sure that the TAP adapter name is correct after the installation.
