Are you sure that "VPN capable" doesn't just mean as a client? In any case I'd just post to the board and say WTF? ;^) > I find it a little ironic and ethically questionable that SVEASoft is > hiding the downloads behind a $20 wall considering the whole reason > this is even available is that it's GPL and LinkSys had to release it > because of that. Yeah... but apparently it's legal - there are quite a few posts about it and at least one FAQ item. I believe the crux is that the GPL says nothing about cost: you can charge all you want for software. Only when you deliver it you must also deliver the source. There's nothing that says you HAVE to make the source freely available to anybody. Most people do, but the license doesn't specify it.
