Free usenet?

Is it ok to use the VNP option of Windows? Should I use the option "use my internet connection" or "dail directly"? Or should I install a program for it?

[anon]

You'll still need a server to connect to

Furthermore, both UltraVPN and HSS both use OpenVPN, which isn't compatible. But there are some free PPTP services, ItsHidden for example, which work the way you mentioned.

I tried ItsHidden and it worked perfect in my room. Unfortunately, when I try it in the classroom (where I have high-speed unlimited download) I get this error:

Windows confirmed that "vnp.itshidden.com" is currently online, but is not responding to connection attempts at this time.

This usually means that a firewall is running somewhere between the two computers and is blocking “pptp”. Windows has confirmed that Windows Firewall on this computer is correctly configured to alliw this connection. However, a remote firewall might be blocking your connection.
-> If you have acces to this firewall then configure the firewall to allow connections through TCP port 1723. If you don’t have access, contact your network administrator or Internet service provider.

Is there a way to change witch port is being used by VPN, or a way to make it work?

"vnp.itshidden.com"

Are you sure you typed it correctly?

No, since it's the VPN server that's listening on that port.

Yes, I typed it correctly, but I mistyped it here.

Do other VPN servers use other ports? Or is it generally the same port?

The standard PPTP listen port is 1723. On OpenVPN the server can choose to use a custom one, so you may have more luck with UVPN or HSS.
