It is not an easy router to set up a software client connection to. It is more designed for creating a VPN between two BEFVP41 routers. One method is outlined in detail at the following site:<br />

Thanks. their method requires special software and rather complicated configuration. is there any way to use just the normal XP Pro/HOme software? Also, is it really necessary to go thru that convaluted configuration.? i was hoping to write up a simple instruction to give to my end-users, so they can connect to the office.<br />
<br />
BTW, if not the BEFVP41, would the RV042 be a better VPN server? others? Most of my DSL connections are all dynamic IP too. But i use DDNS.

setup a VPN connection from Win XP to a Linksys VPN router.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
