I used two VPNs:
1. PPTP VPN
2. OpenVPN
The first one is quite easy to set up.

The second one is harder,

As said, RouterOS doesn't support udp and useless for my Android phone

The power of RouterOS is the scripts. I copy&paste one white-list script for my IP01 and it works for a few months now.

Deeper understanding of how routing works with RouterOS required if you want to write your own scripts.

Cons: it(RB750G) restarts randomly as it runs out of RAM memory... So select routerBoard with larger RAM...

I bought 3 routers: one RB450G is placed in HK, other two RB750Gs are with me...

Unfortunately, the RB450G hasn't been installed

1. Mikrotik's own OS, i.e., RouterOS.
2. Taobao
3. Initial plan is RB450G as VPN server@HK, one site in Mainland China with RB750G and the other one overseas.

RB750G works with VPN, firewall, and partly QoS. DO NOT break it as far as it works!

I prefer other project like embedded phone or asterisk with tiny6410

Mikrotik prefers site-to-site SSTP(I never use it) in stead of openVPN(TCP causes openvpn meltdown problem).

VLAN? Could you show us some cases/tutorials?

    Very concise and useful tutorial for VLAN. I think my VOIP QoS would be an easy job when VLAN is set.

One spontaneous question, could we combine VLAN with VPN for remote client(s)?
