Re: PPTP VPN connection to StrongVPN slow and inconsistent

I've tried your other suggestion of sending all traffic through the VPN instead of using mangle rules. Didn't make any difference.

I also configured my ADSL modem to establish the PPP connection so that the RB is free to handle the PPTP connection on its own with the same result.

Thanks

Also, instead of playing around with routing marks try to only set a host route on the PPPoE interface towards the strongvpn IP, and then let the PPTP client cr...

I have a 2Mb link, and I get throughput rates...
