Hello,
I have a WRV54G (firmware version 2.37) at home. I’m using Comcast as my ISP, the modem is Linksys BEFCMU10. I’m using DYNDNS.com for my “static” IP address solution. All computers involved are XP PRO, SP2.
I loaded Quick VPN on the remote computer. It connects; I get the little green icon. On the router I connect to (the home WRV54G) it says I connected. Linksys manual says to ping a remote computer to test it out, so I pinged the local IP of the remote computer, and I got request timed out.
Here is what I’m after. I will be away from home and I need a secure connection to conduct business. I figure the best way is to VPN to home (that I sure of as far as is viruses spyware free) to a connection and then go to the net. I mainly worried about someone using a sinffer.
How do I test and set up this VPN?
Thanks in advance.
