net use M: \\192.168.1.1\ibayname
{{DrawBoxNote|content= When setting up VPN make sure your subnet is not the same as your VPN, for example your location "home" has a subnet of 192.168.1.0 and your "office" is 192.168.1.0 will not allow you to VPN, you will either need to change your "home" subnet to be different or set up your server to be a unique subnet.}}
