I'm trying to use the built-in PPTP server in release PB15. My problem is that I can connect via PPTP 128-bit CHAP v2 on a Windows XP machine but it is incredibly slow to the point where the connection stops transmitting data. My setup at home is through Comcast so I connect using DHCP. I noticed that it is one of the upcoming things for Manuel to do is to have the DNS servers updated automatically. So I had to enter in a DNS server before I could start using full domain names rather than IP addresses. I have DHCP enabled so the LAN is using NAT. I setup the firewall rule based on an example in the archive list. Proto Source Port Destination Port * PPTP clients * * * At first I didn't have the rule so even though I could connect via PPTP, I wasn't able to do any browsing or ping the internal LAN machines. I have DNS forwarder turned on. I connected via dialup with an ISP that gave me an external IP address so the block private networks on the WAN interface shouldn't affect it. The only other changes I can think of would be changing the LAN interface to 192.168.9.254 Under the PPTP settings I have Enable PPTP server Server address: 192.168.9.25 (I assume that's just some arbitrary IP in the same subnet) Remote address: 192.168.9.48 Require 128-bit encryption Am I missing something here? I have yet to test using another broadband connection. |
