PPTP VPN broken over 3G

I've run into a problem withe getting the SGS2 to connect to PPTP VPNs over 3G.
I can connect fine via wifi, but if I try connecting via 3G I get the message "Server hung up. Username or password incorrect. Try again?"
I've tried two different sims (T-Mobile Uk and Three) neither of which work but if I try exactly the same thing on my Nexus S using the same SIMs the VPNs connect fine, so I'm pretty confident that it's neither a network nor a Gingerbread issue.
I was hoping this would be something that would be fixed in the latest firmware but no luck there either.
I have dumps of the raw output from the PPTP daemon I'm trying to connect to bith when I'm trying and failing to connect via 3G and when connecting via Wifi if they would help anyone trying to track this down.
-Edit-
Just updated to the new KE2 firmware and no luck there either.
same here posted about this before.. seems a wider google bug.. but my sgs i. works fine
I've seen phones like the ZTE Blade that could't connect to VPNs at all without a firmware update but this is the first time I've encountered on that works over Wifi but not 3G.
Surely it's got to take more effort from Samsung to achieve that than just making it work properly on both
confirmed just tested with k2 firmware.. vpn pptp still not working over 3g.. back to using my sgs i since i need that functionality..
bummer
come one samsung fix. this.. this is unacceptable.. some of use need this vpn funciotnality.. just take the code from the original sgs which works.
Same problem here. I'm on KE2 firmware. I wonder if it has been fixed on KE7....
I'm reluctant to upgrade because I have several apps installed that are not available in the market for the country I'm in right now.
Just tested on k7 still broken.

How does one go about reporting this problem to Samsung? Mine was purchased on the black market in a country where it hasn't been released yet so I don't think I can do anything. Hopefully someone in the UK or South Korea, who purchased this phone from their carrier, can report this problem to their carrier or to Samsung directly.
Here is some information that may help narrow down the problem. The the PPTP connection over 3G is 100% successful when tethering the phone to PC via wifi hotspot.

When you say it was working on the original sgs, which version of Android was it tested on? This might be an issue with Android since 2.2 and not specific to SGS2. Check Issue 11277 on the google code android issue site. I can't post the actual link because I'm a new member.
Same problem my USA sgs2 runnuing lighten v1.3 no VPN over 3G
A found a way to connect to a Cisco IPsec VPN on the SGS2 and it's working on WIFI and 3G. You need to be rooted and download a program called VPN Connections 0.99 from the Softpedia website (I'm not allowed to post the link).
If you need to connect to PPTP over 3G then I'm afraid you are out of luck until Samsung does something about this problem, which they probably won't.
Same problem here.

When did the SGS2 release in USA?
Works on froyo 2.2.1 and earlier firmwares on Sgs. Initial reports are that it indeed doesn't work in gingerbread on the Sgs either.

are you sure you are connecting over 3g not wifi and using pptp

Yes and yes. I can successfully connect to a PPTP VPN over both wifi and 3g after doing a factory reset on KF1. Before the reset, only wifi was working.
I have checked it and can confirm it does not work over 3g but only over wifi.
Thanks

wifi problem on xxlq1

I think I solved the wifi issue after updated to xxlq1 4.0.4
My p6800 updated to 4.0.4 and unable to connect home wifi, however, it connect to office wifi very stable.
Today, I tried to config wireless router, and found that my tab is able to connect when I set the wireless in wpa-tkip, and it keep connect strength and no problem now. (My router previous setting was in wpa2-aes)
I think it should be the p6800 driver problem, hope someone can fix it.
Thx
Sam

Hi. Nice to meet people from Hong Kong here. May I ask How's the xxlq1 Android 4.0.4 rom? Is it much smoother than original official Android 3.2? Any Pros and Cons compared with 3.2?
Thanks a lot.

I've a similar situation, the wifi connection to home wifi (Open, Mac Filtering, Dynamic IP) really sucks, but connection to office wifi (WPA, Hidden SSID, static IP) very good.
I've just factory reset my home wifi and set to using WPA-TKIP, Hidden SSID, but it didn't really help. My notebook, Galaxy Note, iPhone4s, iPad2 all get connection very quickly and stable, but not my Tab 7.7...
I update it from 3.2 with mobile ODIN without wipe to keep all apps and data, after update all apps work.
4.0.4 is good and smooth, only problem is wifi at home, but office work.
I backup the room, and tried fresh flash 4.0.4 only, and wipe all data, still not work.
So I think of router and try to config router to fix this issue.
Now I am happy with new rom.

Check them channel on the router. Find a clear channel using a wifi sniffer and try again. I did this and have no issues now.

[Q] 5GHz wifi autoconnect problem

Anyone else have problems with their GS4 auto connecting to 5GHz wireless network? Mine has no problem automatically connecting to 2.4GHz network, but will only connect to 5GHz manually (need to go into wifi settings settings and connect that way)
I have an Asus RT-AC66U wireless router and is the only 5GHz network I have available to try

It's your routers firmware. I have a RT-N66U running Asuswrt-Merlin and it has the same issue with 5GHz.
ASUS developers are working on it.
In case it's useful, I have a Netgear WNDR3700 running DD-WRT and have no issues with the 5GHz band.
Sweet, thanks for the info guys
Any updates on this problem? I'm having the same issue. Thx.

In my opinion 5ghz routers are cheap enough to do some update
This maybe some config issue but i am not networking expert.
For example In lg g6 case using 2,4 means that wifi reaches only 50mb/s but on 5ghz its 100mb/s because config is not set correctly.

Thanx for your query.But mine is only Aptx not Aptx-HD.
And also i am not sure it's authentication.
Coz i connect it with my brother htc 10 oreo, and it's using SBC codec!
You might be able to change the channel on your router and find one that doesn't interfere with bluetooth as much. If you google "bluetooth wifi interference" you should find some things to try.

Does the mini support AC wifi?

It seems that a simple file edit can enable 5ghz wifi, but can it support 802.11ac wifi as well? I need to know since we're planning to upgrade wifi routers sometime soon. Thanks.

Not according to gsmarena
After installing Lineage OS, I only saw 2.4 as the stock, but then installed WIFIman from Ubiqiti on google play and now i can connect to 5ghz!!
