VPN ports

anyone knows which ports I have to open up on the router in order to use Microsoft's PPTP wan drivers - VPN?



Thanks,


Firstly, you need to open up for GRE protocol, which has no ports - it's not TCP or UDP, it's its own protocol. Not all routers will support you making an exception for this protocol.

In addition to that, you need TCP port 1723.
