We have two clients with similar situations when setting up a VPN. Both clients have Dells/win2000 for workstations at the remote sites. Both clients' remote sites either lock up or drop the dsl connection. Neither will work directly with Netopia routers/dsl modems WITHOUT a switch between them. Although the routers have hubs, they just won't work. Older machines have no problems. We're thinking the newer machines are constantly polling and trying to negotiate a higher connected rate.
All we know is that when we put in a switch, they work. We don't know why. Anyone have an opinion?
Thanks
