Most likely cause is a hardware issue on the client side. Cisco & Linksys (and a few lesser known vendors) had firmware problems with their SOHO routers. New firmware has been issued for some routers, in which case a firmware upgrade may take care of the problem. Others do not have a good firmware available and may need to be replaced.

The firmware on the routers in question reports a TCP window size of 0 on port 1723. This can be seen readily with a packet sniffer on the client side.
 
Thanks, I did see some of this on MS site,

I shall dig a bit deeper, in what you are saying, thankyou..
