Has anyone been able to get VPN over 3G working

I am just wondering, if anyone has VPN over 3G working with iPad. It works a treat with the iphone4, just not iPad. All settings are the same for both devices, however iPad says connecting, authenticating, and disconnecting. Credentials have been checked numerous times, as have all other fields. iPad just doesn't want to play the game.

iPad, iOS 4.3.1

Works "fine" here:


- iPad (1) 3G

- 3G On

- WiFi Off

- Vodafone Portugal

- PPTP VPN

- No cable to neither PC nor charger

- Always connects 1st try


- I turn VPN on, lock the screen, and if I unlock in under 15s it will be still ON; if after 15s, then it will have dropped


- If, on the other hand, I have the charger connected, I have tested with more than 2 mins after locking it and it's still on.


As for your problem connecting, try using the same card on your iPad as you use on your phone to test, seeing that the settings are all the same and it works fine on iPhone and not on iPad.
