I tried starting a PPTP VPN first and it connected but it would not let
me login. From work to home I was able to use Remote Desktop alone and
it let me login but was extremely slow. Going the other way (home to
work) I have to use a VPN to get through the company firewall.

Makes sense but didn't Vista change to a self tuning stack? With RC1, I
took the router off and connected directly to my Charter broadband modem
with no change. I haven't tried that with RC2. My router is an older
Netgear RT314. I couldn't find where the MTU could be changed on it.

Me too...
