VPN Error 806

"A connection between your computer and the VPN server has been established but the VPN connection cannot be completed." - This error indicates a router firewall is preventing some VPN protocol traffic between client and server. Most commonly, it is TCP port 1723 that is at issue and must be opened by the appropriate network administrator.

You have created a new thread so I'm not sure which old post you are referring to, but have you checked that VPN access is allowed through your router, and that the correct ports are open?
