You can login from the StrongVPN website, there is a link at the top: If that doesn't work, the direct link to the Customer Area login page is: If you can not remember your password, please reset it using this link: After logging in hover over ' VPN Accounts' at the top, then click the menu item ' VPN Accounts Summary'. Click ' Account Setup Instructions' near the PPTP/L2TP/SSTP account.

On this page you will see your account setup credentials: Server Address, Username, Password and IPSec Key (only needed for L2TP connection). Please notice: The credentials on the screen above will not work — this is just an example.

We recommend to leave Account Setup Instructions window open, since you will need this information for setup. Make sure that you have credentials at hand until you finish.
