pptp VPN, cant ping to remote devices

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi there.

I m trying to create a VPN for put together two offices. In one side I have created a pptp server and the client can connect. I can ping devices into the networks of each one from the ping tool of the routerboard. But the problem comes when I want to ping these devices from the windows’ cmd command line tool. So, do I have to do something in the RB vpn server or client?

Best regards.

Did you add the route in the client? If 10.1.101.0/24 is the local network on the server, then add this.

/ip route
add dst-address=10.1.101.0/24 gateway=pptp-out1

hello! I have already connected the two nets and now I can ping each other adding the next settings into the server:

/ppp secret
add local-address=192.168.223.1 name=reb password=reb\
    remote-address=192.168.227.1 routes=192.168.227.0/24 service=pptp

add local-address=192.168.223.1 name=cams password=1234\
    remote-address=192.168.225.1 routes=192.168.225.0/24 service=pptp

add local-address=192.168.223.1 name=office1 password=123456 \
    remote-address=192.168.224.1 routes=192.168.224.0/24 service=pptp

So, as you can see I have another offices that have been connected succesfully, but I have another question, do you know how to ping these subnets between them? I mean, i want to be able to ping 192.168.227.0/24 to 192.168.225.0/24

I am going to guess here since I have not tried it. Add routes in the client routers as you did for the VPN server ip subnet.
I would try this in the 192.168.224.0/24 router

/ip route
add dst-address=192.168.225.0/24 gateway=pptp-out1
add dst-address=192.168.227.0/24 gateway=pptp-out1

Change pptp-out1 to the name of your pptp connection.

Do the same in the other two client routers.
