More than two PPTP VPN
I work for a contracting company and am often working on several tickets at once (waiting on things to install, etc.) If I have two PPTP VPN already open and try to open a third one, Windows 7 gives an error that the device is already in use. Is there a way around this, for instance adding more client interfaces in the same way that I would add server interfaces on the PPTP server?
Which version of Windows 7 do you have? I just tried with Pro and had no trouble opening 3 VPN connections. Try unchecking "use default gateway on remote network" in the advanced properties of tcpv4 in the VPN connectoid....maybe you've got two networks trying to used the same address space.

I have Windows 7 Pro. I usually always disable default gateway, but I will check that when I get a chance. Most of our customers (all of the ones we did the initial set up for) have non-overlapping IP spaces, and I have connected to two that have the same before. It obviously doesn't work well, but it does connect.
