[pptp-server] speed

[Jim Roland]

I'm experiencing the same issue.  I have 0%-1% packet loss to my VPN box,
and latency of 50ms.  I only get about 110-140kbps throughput.  I've tried
changing the speed option above 115200 in /etc/pptpd.conf, however pppd
(v2.4.0 or v2.4.1) does not appear like any speed above 115200...
