PPTP VPN Connects but then stalls after loading first webpage

I'm having an issue with the PPTP VPN client on CM10. I am fairly new to custom roms, but I managed to install CM10 and it appears to be fairly stable thus far.
 
However, I am having an odd issue with the PPTP VPN. While I can connect to my PPTP server over wifi on another network, it starts to hang immediately after I start trying to use internet. I tested a few things out. 
 
First, I know the VPN server is working since I can connect to it and use it fine on any of my windows or ubuntu or idevices.
 
Second, it appears the the client is initially forwarding traffic properly as the first webpage I try to load is "whatismyipaddress.com" and it correctly tells me that I am not getting the ip of the VPN server.
 
However, it will always immediately stall and the load bar on the webpage will freeze and I no more internet activity will occur. I never disconnect from the server.
 
Third, I also opened up a terminal and tried to ping a page (google.com) and what I will see that it successfully completes an initial ping, but then again freezes.
 
I also tried booting into Safe Mode to see if it was any of the apps that were causing interference, but it still occurs.
 
So, my question is, has anyone experienced similar behavior? Or is there any suggestions as to how to proceed? I am thinking it may not be a serious issue since it does connect and initially forward traffic properly. It just stalls for some reason.
 
Thanks for any suggestions or advice.
