Here is what changed:
PHL2 no longer has its own web server. It now uses HomeSeer's web server. As a result you will forward an external port to your HomeSeer web server's port - default 80. You will use HomeSeer login credentials with normal privileges. There are no longer separate PHL2 credentials.
For this reason I believe MyHS to be a better solution for security reasons, unless you have enabled SSL on your HomeSeer server.
I am testing my VPN and it is working well. For that there is no need for credentials at all. After the test I may go back to MyHS as it was totally reliable and fast.
EDIT: Al tested and succeeded with Normal privileges. This would enhance security. I still believe it would be prudent to consider MyHS as opposed to an open port to the Internet.
EDIT2: It also works with Guest User Rights
