I was trying to login to a PPTP VPN server with my RT-16N router (Firmware:376.47 (Merlin build)) but I am getting a CHAP authentication fail error. I am able to login successfully with my PC on Windows 7 so it looks like its a problem between the router and VPN server. Below is log of the failure. I tried two other PPTP servers but no go on either.

But when I try a L2TP server everything works fine.

Also when I am logged into the L2TP server I lose my per IP traffic data. (all my IP's show zero traffic but TCP/UDP connections still shows up). The Global traffic monitor though works fine. When I am logged out the per IP traffic data is fine.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks
