connect to local area network through PPTP VPN (Synology DSM)

Credit goes to this forum post by vibrationbaby

In short, assign PPTP managed IPs into the same pool of local private network.
  1. login as root through SSH.
  2. go to /usr/syno/etc/packages/VPNCenter/pptp
  3. edit the two lines for localip and remoteip pptp.conf. (@vibrationbaby provided the setting below. i used .200 and .201-205 while my DHCP managed 100-199. just choose some addresses that is not overlapping with existing DHCP pool.)
    localip 192.168.1.210
remoteip 192.168.1.211-220
  4. then it should work after restart the VPN Server through DSM web interface.

    Your home network likely uses the addresses 192.168.1.xxx. This is also the range that most of the devices I'm testing will use as their initial defaults, Click here for Link
