OpenVPN is a free and open source software application that implements virtual private network (VPN) solutions for creating secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections in routed or bridged configurations and remote access facilities.
It uses SSL/TLS security for encryption and is capable of traversing network address translators (NATs) and firewalls. It was written by James Yonan and is published under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Open VPN is much better and more reliable than PPTP VPN, but requires a more complicated set up on your local computer.
Mobiles devices such as IPHONE and Blackberry, currently don't support OPEN vpn and you would have to also use PPTP VPN.
