So you are saying that the VPN connection works with your friends router??
If that is the case check the configuration of your router as they usually
have an option to enable/disable pptp or ipsec passthrough. If you find such
enable them to see if that makes a difference. If the router has an option
to enable/disable SPI try disabling SPI at least temporarily. DSL
connections can be touchy if the MTU is not correct and that can be
configured in the router. You might want to compare your MTU setting to the
one you have. --- Steve
