    EXAMPLE: stevejobs@witopia
    RSA SecurID: OFF
    Password: Your WiTopia Password

TO CONNECT THEREAFTER:
  1. Choose "Settings" from Home screen.
  2. Switch VPN to "ON".
TO CHANGE TO A DIFFERENT SERVER LOCATION:

The above server address (pptp.witopia.net) is the default address that will randomly route you to a gateway location. For fastest connection, it is usually best to configure it to connect to the VPN gateway closest to where you are. Simply add the 3 letter airport code to your server address field on your device and save and it will always connect there until you change it.

For example, MAD is the airport code for Madrid, Spain. To connect through the Madrid, Spain VPN gateway you would simply change the server address in your device's PPTP VPN software as follows:

Old: pptp.witopia.net

New: pptp.mad.witopia.net
