Is PPTP more or less secure than SSH?

[Howard]

I have an SSH host set up on a machine on my home network to which I connect to with pre-shared keys and tunnel/port forward through, mainly to connect to my home network from afar, but sometimes to tunnel web traffic through.

My router (Asus RT-N56U)'s firmware has recently been upgraded to feature a PPTP server.

Would this be a better solution, or should I stick to SSH?


Thanks!

MS-CHAPv2 is insecure. http://arstechnica.com/security/2012/07/broken-microsoft-sheme-exposes-traffic/

Stick to SSH.

Agree, stick with SSH. If you're paranoid, change the pre-shared key sometimes.
