problem of using PPTP

[one car]

Hello,

 

I have problem of using PPTP under Qubes. For example, in this webpage: http://www.vpnbook.com/freevpn

I can use the pptp us1.vpnbook.com in my windows10. Then I switch to Qubes OS 3.2 rc2 and I cannot use this PPTP. I set it up in the VPN Connections in the netwokr bar icon in the lower right side of the screen.  I created a win10 virtual machine in Qubes too. The windows cannot connect to the PPTP neither. The error message is  : Can't connect to VPN connection. A connection to the remote computer could not be established, so the port for this computer was closed.

I tried several other online free PPTP service account in the virual windows 10 too. None of them works. It's normal that some are expired and just not working. But I test the one I mentioned  (us1.vpnbook.com) and it works.

Do you know why? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You could try openvpn instead of PPTP if your VPN service supports it.
