Hi Everyone,

Is it possible to be able to VPN two computers from home into my company network. Right now, only one computer can access VPN, and not two at the same time.

Thanks in advance

1) Xerox dealers use the Nortel VPN client, with a normal home router only one client can work at a time. With a VPN router, we used a in 2002, the dealer could have 8 clients.

2) if your work allowed site to site IPSEC VPNs, you could use a and make no changes on the home PCs at all.

I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
 
Hi,

It depends on the devices you are using.

If i am at home with my laptop and i enable my mobile user VPN from the laptop to works firewall, i cannot then connect another laptop in my house to works firewall.

Because works firewall will see both laptops coming from the same gateway IP/my IP address at home. And it is the laptop creating the VPN.

Instead i brought an ADSL router capable of creating VPNs - draytek vigor 2800vgn

The device creates the VPN to work not the laptop, therefore all computers on my home network can connect to works firewall
 
Thank you for your feedback guys. I was wondering why and I am glad to know from you guys the reasons why I was having difficulties

Thanks again
