Typically, Error 721 occurs when your ISP/Network does not allow PPTP Port 1723 or GRE packets. To rectify error 721, please check the router settings and make sure TCP Port 1723, IP Protocol 47 (GRE) are allowed. Also, make sure that the router has the PPTP and PPTP pass-through option enabled.

Furthermore, you may switch between L2TP, SSTP, and OpenVPN protocols.
