In general, I wouldn't recommend using a PPTP connection (especially
from China) simply due to the VERYPOOR™ encryption. You don't want to
transmit sensitive data over an MPPE "encrypted" connection.
No, you don't.
Really!
Using OpenVPN with AES256 may be a bit harder to set up, but improves
security greatly. OpenVPN is much more reliable anyway.
I have a PPTP connection "running" to my company 400km away from me,
which keeps breaking down and running slowly all the time, while an
OpenVPN connection to my server (500km away) runs perfectly fine with a
higher encryption (AES256).
