PPTP Issues

Mon Apr 01, 2019 9:19 pm

So, I have never actually set up any kind of VPN service (L2TP, PPTP, ETC) anywhere other than here at work where everything is technically on the same network. I am now trying to set up a VPN server on my virtual Mikrotik at home so I can VPN to my house incase I ever need to.

I have followed some instructions on line, but just cant seem to get anything to connect to it, whether its another Mikrotik or just a windows machine connecting to VPN. I am trying to use PPTP as I have heard it is easier to get devices connected when behind another gateway with its own firewall (my ISP modem). If you need anything from me let me know and I can get it!
