Hi, Sorry for barging into the thread, but something just caught my attention. We use Mikrotik throughout our network, and have found them quite useful and with the right hardware, it performs pretty well in our setup.
But, there are guys in this forum who are quite frankly, way ahead than myself in terms of both knowledge and experience. So, could you please elaborate why you rate Mikrotik as dumb? Perhaps I am already in trouble! Regards, HASSAN On 5/6/09, Ivan Kalik <[email protected]> wrote: >> How about vpn windows as NAS? >> > > Is that a joke? Windows server would be useless.
