    What kind of VPN is it? Do you get a directly reachable IP address or is NAT involved? NAT means your VPN endpoint would have to do a portforward of 1688/tcp to your client. NAT also means you can't just reach a virtual network since this would require setting a route on the endpoint.

    Things like this can become overly complex really fast if you don't design your network properly.

    Nope, you will have to use right GVLK (Client-Key), commands in an elevated CMD and the same host. Link to commands i provided in previous post of me :D.

    If you take a look into my sticky thread (first link in signature) you can find activation scripts, that should do the job, with a little help by you :cool2:.

    Still no response for Office 15 here. Windows activation is working. Did you test activating Office 15 against the host from inside your LAN?
