The VPN connection failed due to unsuccessful domain name resolution.
Answer
The cause is not fully known, but this is seen more frequently when people are using Google Public DNS (DNS servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)
- Try using another DNS server, such as your ISP's DNS server
- Try sending some pings to vpn.mit.edu before connecting; these can help cache the IP address in your DNS cache.
- Wait a few minutes and try connecting again; the connection can work if you try again later.
