When I was setting up the L2TP VPN, the biggest problem I had was in getting the firewall rules right.

In your case, a PPTP VPN will need port 1723 and IP protocol 47 passed through (probably on the ‘input’ chain).

The L2TP vpn, for the record, needed port 500, 1701, 4500 and IP protocol 50.

thx for the replay …in my filter rule i made it

action=eccept
chain=input
src.address=0.0.0.0/0
dst.address=my static ip
protocol = 47 gre

Then


action=eccept
chain=input
src.address=0.0.0.0/0
dst.address=my static ip
protocol = 6 tcp
dst.port=1723


but i still cant connect from my mobile …from laptop working ok connection…

any suggestions pls

I’m using a couple laptops and an Android to VPN into a couple systems behind MT routers.
I got the technique from Greg Sowell.
He’s really good and makes it very clear and easy.
Go to http://gregsowell.com . In the Mikrotik videos tab you’ll find a very cool video/tutorial on exactly how to create a tunnel to your MT system from an android.
Greg is THE man.
