Its funny, because of a few Linksys routers, they were advertising 50 or even 70 vpns. After playing with them and getting them to work, that number is the max number of defined vpns. It takes a little while to figure out to setup Linksys vpns, static ip on at least one end, and psk, is not too bad. The newer routers are a little easier, if you have banged your head on them a few times. Reading thru their KB and reading linksysinfo.org helps if you have the time. All the local experts around here always seem to use non-linksys cisco products for vpns.

Not that one in particular, but I've had exposure to a few different LinkSys encryption boxes in the past, and they've all sucked. Inadequate processing power (slow). Bad documentation, confusing web UI. Suspect security design. Unreliable -- they'd drop the tunnel, or stop routing packets, or just plain lock up -- all requiring a power-cycle to fix. This was from before Cisco had sunk their teeth into LinkSys, but I haven't really seen any change in product quality in their other stuff. LinkSys makes okay SOHO stuff for light usage, but if you're looking at VPNs you're outside of that product space, in my opinion. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
