Well that is a good thing.
#1 PPTP is obsolete and heavily vulnerable, and has long been abandoned by all major players. Yes, even Microsoft.
#2 there are many protocols and tools suitable for host to distant router (road warrior networking VPN), or router to router (network to network or site to site networking VPN) but I am not familiar with any valid use case for router to host.

Perhaps some more detail about what you are trying to accomplish will result in some useful suggestions about what tools to use.
