Why are you trying to create a VPN connection from your laptop to your router? The normal thing to do would be to connect from laptop to remote router on the Internet (pass-through) or from router to router.
Can you give more details on what you are trying to do and the hardware that you have please. Which Safecom router do you have? What OS is running on the laptop?

We learn something every day, and lots of times it’s that what we learned the day before was wrong.

Have you got the certificates etc. sorted out? You will note that at one point during that setup, you have to enter a pre-shared key for server/client in the setup.

Well what with trying to use a pre-shared key and a SHA1 error I would say that the keys aren't matching between client and server when a connection is attempted.
