I have a small Linksys BFSR11 router that supplies a 15 computer office with internet. It goes through our T1 line. Am i missing somthing when it comes to making a VPN through it? I understand that PPTP port 1723 needs forwarded, but this router doesnt have anything that mentions gre protocols or protocol 47, how would I forward those requests through?. Also, the option for "Forward PPTP requests" is checked, but doesnt change the fact that my connection doesnt go through.

My question, How do i forward PROTOCOL's (such as pptp's GRE prot. and L2tp's 50 and 51 prot.) Through my BFSR11 Wan/Lan router?
 
well, no replies, but i figured it out. I have a feeling that the flash i made on the router was bad...i recently flashed the router with another ROM and now it works. However the router is now giving me other problems...so im done with linksys...Ive purchased a Cisco 806, and it does everything i need, including VPN's easily
