    Couple of notes:

    – You only need for working vpn connection: “Enable PPTP” & profile information
    – Active profile (if you have saved multiple purevpn connections – then one of them need to be active)

    All the rest:

    – Connect automaticly is free of choice – but if you want that vpn tunnel is on after router reboot you have to tick that
    – Echo timeout – free of choice
    – Echo count – free of choice
    – “Block traffic….” is choice of your own… Depends what you want to do if VPN goes down

    Btw. Echo timeout & count were default numbers…

    Just wanted to clarify those.
