Urgent Help Please - Router for multiple simultaneous VPN tunnels??

[lanrat]

Hi All,

The BEFSR41 router currently in place at the office only supports 1 VPN tunnel at a time.

I need a replacement Broadband router that will support at least 5 simultaneous VPN tunnels (from remote users) into the SBS Server I am about to deploy.

I see a few people speak of the DI-604 - will it support multiple co-existing sessions, and how many?

I cannot find definitive info on most of the low cost routers out there that specify the *number* of tunnels they will support.

Choices available appear to be:
- D-Link 804HV
- Linksys RV400
- Linksys RVL200
- Linksys RV042

(NOTE: I realise I don't need the "endpoint" some of these provide but these are about the only ones I can find that specify multiple tunnel support!!)

If you're going to run multiple sessions I would suggest spending a few extra dollars and going into a mid-range commercial product instead of a consumer grade product. Look at Nortel Contivity, Symantec or Cisco, be about double the price of the linksys/d-link products you listed but will most likily be more robust

Im running the linksys wrvs4400n with 4 tunnels.
It can support more. Not sure what the max is.
