Region : UnitedStates

Model : TL-R600VPN

Hardware Version : V2

Firmware Version : 1.2.3 Build 140801 Rel.49374n

ISP : Time Warner and AT&T


Hi Purchased a R600VPN about 2 weeks ago (3/1/2015)
Was able to get it up and running with no problemm I can connect Windows PCs to the VPN

I'm using PPTP.

However when I try connecting using Ubuntu, Android or iPhone IOS I can not get connected
it attempts to connect times out after a 2 seconds then says disconnected.
I rebooted the router several times
I can connect sometimes on the Samsung S5, I also have Tab 3 that I'm testing this with as well.
I've tried using my Time warner Home Network and m AT&T mobile network on both devices.

Why would the VPN work with Windows (8.1 and 7) and not work with any other OS??

Again hit or miss, mostly miss
here's my info
I just upgraded the firmware to see if it would work but still to no avail

Thanks in advance

When connecting using Ubuntu, Android or iPhone IOS, they are all connected wirelessly, right? Wireless connection is stable enough?
Cannot figure out if it is VPN connection issue or wireless connection issue.
You may have to describe in more details and have more tests. After that, you can submit a ticket here.

Yes wireless connection is very stable, I've tried both wireless and cellular. It's not the connection.
because the windows PC connects to the VPN no issues and it's uses wireless as well

There isn;t much to test. the PPTP server really has no setting other than Enable or disable, DHCP and setting up users.

@ RudemanRB You should be more patient as they have to test it. :) Remember to post it here if there is any update.
