VPN capabilities: Can a VPN connection be programmed in this router and thus the router becomes a VPN? No need for VPN con in my laptop anymore?

you can use PPTP or Cisco VPN connecton wth this router. In order to use VPN, You have to install cisco small VPN program on your PC.

Yes. Easy to implement, just use the VPN wizard and enter the local and wan IP addresses properly. Works reliably. I get 50Mbps/25Mbps throughput. I just upgraded to the Netgear SRX5308 which gives me 110Mbps/35Mpbs on cable.

After Reviewing the package contents I can not find any sign that it once had a VPN License. I would assume that it would need to be purchased. Sorry again for the delayed response. Thank you and have a good day.

Who told you that? I hope not a salesman. It would depend on what application you are using once the VPN is connected.

It has a guest access which I have turned off. I had to look to confirm it has 2 USB ports because I don't use them. Remember a router is a relatively slow computer so why use what little computing it has to deal with this stuff. We found that by passing our VPN through to a computer rather than letting the router handle it, our speed was much much faster. I think the same would apply here.

Yes, the device has site-to-site vpn ability as one router acting as a vpn server and the other acting as a vpn client

All routers can support any OS that supports networking. Some routers have software that makes things "easier", but this is not needed, and in most cases, useless. Your router will have an IP address which you type in any modern browser (including Safari) which you can manage the operations of the router from there.

I have not tried VPN, but I would believe it would be able to. I can try for you. Please ask me again in a day.

No.The Ceton doesn't allow the DHCP server to set a default gateway - it doesn't know how to route requests to people not within your subnet mask. So, it wouldn't know how to reach people on a VPN since those IPs won't be within the wired subnet mask. You'll also have horrid quality because of the limited upstream bandwidth on most internet connections.Ports have nothing to do with it as Marc Davis said. VPN is a straight tunnel as you probably know - port filtering at the ISP does not occur.

Mine works fine on my Linksys router and I am able to access it through my VPN.

I haven't really encountered any attempts at DDOS to answer that, but I do know there is a plethora of options for setting up a VPN. There are options within the software (provided you keep it up to date, the original shipped firmware was buggy) to specifically subnet for the VPN based on MAC address and allow the rest to be open. This allows for good control over bandwidth management if you decide not to use the built in bandwidth management software.

This computer does not have any routing capabilities. It may be cheaper to buy a router separately. Then to configure a computer to do routing.

Correct. The configuration is a bit complicated, but it's a fantastic router with great features if you know how to set it up.

yes but GUI is limited. Yes it supports 255.255.0.0. If you are only comfortable with GUI don't get this... you will need to teach yourself some basic linux operation to take advantage of this router.

It should be simple. The utility helps you set it up for users that don't know how to navigate the router directly. I would not recommend to enable the guest account /login. That part can be confusing and difficult for guest users.

I really don't know. Would think so, but I have a different router. Sorry I cannot be of more help.
