Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Multiple VPN Connections through home router
 
Lee,

    What device on the inside of your network are the inbound VPN
connections terminating on?

Not your typical WLAN question...
 
We use L2TP/IPSec VPN for remote access into campus for home users,
travelers, vendors, etc. Other than secure remote access, we also like
to tout this as a way to secure home wireless network sessions for those
who don't otherwise turn on their security options. Here's the problem:
we have a growing number of cases where multiple (usually 2, like
spouses or roommates) users attempt to VPN through the consumer class
SOHO routers (wired and/or wireless). When more than one session is
attempted, either the first is the only one that works, or the first
gets bumped. 
 
We have done some research on units that promise multiple session
pass-through (like DLink's WGT624, for example) but are not having luck.
So- wondering if others have the same problem with remote users and
multiple VPN sessions through the SOHO boxes, and if you have found a
model or two that are friendly to multiple sessions (without fixing IP
addresses and doing port forwarding/triggering).
 
Thanks much-
 
Lee
