one thing on a MT-MT pptp connection you need to put routes between them .

it seems ok with dial up, i don't have problems with it.
when MT is client.
but it is truth, that we should be careful with routes, there might be some problems.

l2tp uses udp protocol.
when establishing connetction it takes 1701 udp protocol.
but after it further traffic uses available udp port.
