Hi everyone!
Okay, I've gone a considerable way with my VPN setup here and its
starting to become a bit of a problem for several reasons.
I want to use the VPN facility I have over all my network with all
devices and that just isn't practically possible unless I get some
special equipment which I'll discuss in a moment.
If you'[re thinking of just using VPN with an IOS device then you more
or less have the absolute perfect tool at your fngertips, setting up VPN
on an IOS device such as iPad, iPhone or iPod touch is a breeze and even
better, you can easily witch between multiple configurations.
For example, you may have one configuration to connect you to a server
in the U.S. whilst another connects you to the U.K..
With the PC or the Mac this can prove to be a bit of a challenge.
Witopia, - the VPN service I recommend - have SSL setups for your
particular service which can be run with Windows but the problem with
these are that they seem completely inaccessible, they rely completely
on some form of Java which WE and other Screen Readers I've tried don't
seem to like much.
I then tried "Hotspot Shield Elite", not a bad service but then comes
the problem we're talking about, I can see the country on the web page
but how to change it?
So then I looked at having the router do the job and it seems that you
run into the problem of changing configurations.
On the IOS devices this is done with a few taps but with a router you'd
have to go into the router's interface and change it from there, no
quick way of even changing different router configurations.
Witopia recommend what's called the "Cloakbox Pro" for for those people
who want to use all their devices on their network through their VPN
services and this box naturally allows the changing of country for each
device "on-the-fly" but the problem is that Witopia will only ship to a
U.S. address so here's the question, would a list member be willing to
receive the Cloakbox Pro on my behalf and forward it onto me in australia?
Naturally I'd be more than happy to cover any postage fees and give the
person a little pocket money to be going on with <smile>.
If anyone could possibly help etc then perhaps it would be best to get
back to me privately so as not to clutter the list though perhaps others
may have other helpful suggestions with regard to this.
Cheers!
