I have a VPN connection (properties at end of message) set up for work using 
the XP VPN client.  When I bypass my router (D Link 604) everything works
fine.  When I connect through the router, I drop the connection. 
Establishing the connection isn't a problem, but within 10-15 minutes it 
drops off.

On the router, I have the VPN passthrough with PPTP enabled.  I've tried 
enabling and disabling IPSEC as well.  I've also opened port 1723 (PPTP) and 
used my private IP of my computer.

same subnet as the company LAN.  I

I've been reading articles in google for the past few days but I just can't

Can anyone lead me in the right direction for getting my VPN connection to 
work though this router?
