Setting up a VPN....

Post by DDtB » Fri May 12, 2006 3:37 pm

Right...

gonna set up a basic VPN for me and a couple of others so we can work from home and access the office network...

Looking at putting in a cheap-ish VPN router and downloading some free client software etc...

Any recommendations on routers, clients or general advice would be appreciated....

Cheers!

Dave.

Get some big pants and then wear tight trousers (possibly Farah)

Free, no hardware required.

Very flexible and very reliable - we use it at work for both home workers and for links to smaller remote sites.

Let me know if you would like some help with this.
