Bug Description
I tried to reactivate a VPN (for PPTP) several times again and again using PPTP, and it is just that it just suddenly turns off every time I try to turn on. There is no process ongoing for PPTP.
I tried to use an OpenVPN plugin for VPN, it works depending on the VPN server.
I depend on VPN a lot especially on FreeVPN PPTP.
