Setup Remote User Access on PepLink Balance One Router

Setup: PepLink Balance One router, using LogMeIn Hamachi for remote access VPN.
Goal: Replace LogMeIn Hamachi VPN with PepLink's built in Remote User Access.
Anyone has experience using PepLink's own Remote User Access, is it worth the while, secure?
Need detailed instructions please.

I have set up the Remote User Access on the router according to the manual, no problem. I also set up a test VPN client that comes with Windows 10 and tried to connect remotely, but got the following error:
"Can't connect to the Cop L2TP VPN Connection.
The connection was prevented because of a policy configured on a RAS/VPN server. Specifically, the authentication method used bye the server to verify your username and password may not match the authentication method configured in your connection profile. Please contact the Administrator of the RAS server and notify them of the error."

That should be able to work, but you've likely got some setting different between the two ends. I'd try setting it up with OpenVPN instead. I've found the configuration to be straightforward and have had much better success with that.

The router doesn't support OpenVPN, only L2TP with IPsec, or PPTP.
