Try these settings. It will help you for sure.

1-Tap the ‘Menu’ button on your smartphone to open the resulting window.

2-Open the ‘Wireless and Network Settings’ window as you enter the new window and tap the concerned icon.

3-You will notice the option for ‘VPN Settings‘ along with many other options depending on the interface of the respective Android phone.

4-After tapping the VPN settings option, you will get the choice to connect to one of the many protocols available. From these, choose ‘Add PPTP VPN’.

5-In the next window, you will be asked to set VPN Name, VPN Server, Enable encryption, and DNS search domains, depending on your handheld devices.

6-Provide VPN Name and other information accordingly, click OK to complete the VPN configuration.

7-Navigate back to the VPN listings window and tap the VPN network that you have created just now to establish the connection.

8-The connection will be notified by a key icon in the notification area of the smartphone.

9-To disconnect the VPN, all you need is to move to the location of the connection and tap the current VPN connection.

Hope this will help you
