VPN problems {PPTP}
 

Currently trying to get my HTC HD2 to connect to ItsHidden.com's VPN.

I have tried GreenBow VPN and it only has L2TP/IPsec.

I have searched and tried all the tutorial I can find so far for the built-in option and I get either:

"Cannot connect: Verify username/password"

or

"Remote party refused connection"

...but it works fine on all of my PC's (yes I have checked the user/pass info to be sure).

I added the VPN to the "My work network", then tried to get it to connect, producing both the errors. The modem connection was under its own bit and no connection was specified for the "My Work network".


Any help would be great...

Regards,

I have been trying to connect to my company's VPN servers which are using both PPTP and L2TP (shared key). Neither work using the HD2, but using PC's and Laptops running Windows it does work. A log on the server is generated which says.... A connection between the VPN server and the VPN client 66.94.20.216 has been established, but the VPN connection cannot be completed. The most common cause for this is that a firewall or router between the VPN server and the VPN client is not configured to allow Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) packets (protocol 47). Verify that the firewalls and routers between your VPN server and the Internet allow GRE packets. Make sure the firewalls and routers on the user's network are also configured to allow GRE packets. It must be an issue with T-mobile blocking that port through their data connection, because I can connect via vpn while connected to my home wifi network. Has anyone else had this problem and found a resolution? If so, what was the problem?

I have researched the best solution that keeps my BlackBerry traffic encrypted so I am 100% safe and secure to surf anonymously. With VPN for Blackberry my wireless connection will be protected any time.
