you can find a nice tutorial on how to setup a vpn here: http://compnetworking.about.com/od/vpn/ht/newvpnwindowsxp.htm

Th ports are:
* UDP port 500 (IKE, Internet Key Exchange)
* IP Protocol 50 (ESP)
* IP Protocol 51 (AH)
* UDP port 10000 (IPSec encapsulated in UDP)
* TCP port 443 (IPSec encapsulated in TCP)

The easiest way is to use PPTP.

U need to open port 1723 and your router needs to allow GRE (port47) to pass through.

Not sure about Telkom routers. I hate them. We use netgear routers, and it works great.

Hope it helps.

oh please note, GRE is not port 47. Its protocol 47, there is a difference
