PS3 connection to remote media server
The current setup is PS3 @ home and an network somewhere else running SBS 2003 c/w loads of media (let's say music, pictures and the odd video).
What I'm looking to do is allow access to remote users & a PS3 to pull videos to watch.
I know if I setup an PC based media server on my local LAN it will work fine, but how do I allow the PS3 connection to a remote LAN/server ?
Can this be done

Basically you are using the Router hardware to create a VPN Tunnel so the two networks look the same.
The Cisco (previously LinkSys) RVL200 series would seem to do what you want. Know that this is making the two sites 1 which may or not be what you want to do from a security stand point.
