After hearing Tony praise this Mutlitech SOHO VPN, I bought around 5 of
them, been using them for a year now and they have performed great. You can
buy these for around $ 130.00 if you shop around. I am also impressed with
the SnapGear SOHO router, www.snapgear.com. Snapgear just got high praises
in some product reviews I saw. Snapgear runs embedded Linux. They have added
some nice features, and I think they go beyond the Mutlitech SOHO in
features.
