Hi Keith, I'm just getting back around to this - I like the idea of a VPN. I have three locations I need to accomodate and have to admit I haven't done anything with a VPN so if you'll allow me to ask some pretty naive questions:
Did you set up the VPN just within the router or get an actual VPN service to connect to? I actually wanted to get some DSL lines but at a couple of locations ATT won't even install copper lines anymore. Were you involved in the overall certification PCI certification process? I'm wondering about stuff like the internal paper handling aspects of the deal. Any insight is welcome. Thanks much!
