Windows – Replace Checkpoint VPN client by Windows 8/7 built-in client

vpnwindows 7windows 8

Hi I'm running the Check point Endpoint Security VPN R75 (which replaces SecureClient) for Windows and it crashes my laptop very often.
Now I've fixed it and due to the crashes I upgraded to Windows 8.

Long story short, I don't want to go though that process anymore.
I want to use the built-in Windows 8 VPN client to connect to the Network which works by using the Checkpoit VPN software.

Steps I've taken

  1. I have already enrolled and saved certificate (.p12).
  2. Added/imported the certificate to my local profile
  3. Followed the XP part of this thread
  4. See screenshots for the configs
    Security tab
    Security tab advanced settings
    Security tab smartcard or certification properties

Hopefully I can get some help configuring this without the use of Checkpoint VPN.
