What RouterBoard HW and Routers OS can set up VPN (PPtP or other kind) over 3G USB-modem?

what’s the problem? there is no limit, just make PPTP, it works. Any HW and any RouterOS version can do it.

Does any Microtik HW have 3G support? What about RB411AH?
And next question:
Does RB411U have USB power enough to serve USB 3G modem?

RB411AH doesn’t have any ports to connect 3G card. Yes, RB411U is the better choice. USB power is enough for any 3G USB modem.

But what about the following: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/routerboard-rb411uahr-and-3g-modem/38180/2 ???

RB411U and RB411UAHR are different products! See www.routerboard.com !

i tried pptp over 3G Modem but i find issue slow speed…what should i do?

3G is not very fast by itself. What do you consider “slow speed”? Give more details

I know this is an old post but this statement is still not true. The USB power in RB411U is not enought to power just any 3G modem, better yet… I haven’t found a single USB 3G modem that works with RB411U without a power workaround. The USB on RB411U is good enough for USB storage and thats it.
