        L2TP/IPsec won't work from a Windows client. That said, there are instructions for configuring L2TP/IPsec at https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/L2TP/IPsec

        IKEv2 is much better and works from many different client platforms without issue. https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/IKEv2_with_EAP-MSCHAPv2

          Windows clients use 3DES for the encryption, use 3DES in the phase 1 of the IPSec tunnel instead of AES.
