Title: Router okay, VPN has caveats
Product review: We have a LinkSys RVS4000 at our ofc/lab. The router and firewall functions seem to be acceptable, though i am not sure if our sys admin ever figured out how to isolate two internal networks from each other. The VPN function requires software on the remote machine.I feel there are two isses with this product:1) For the VPN, Linksys provides Quick VPN, or you can buy (as in, pay for) another product such as TheGreenBow.In my opion, QuickVPN is garbage; a less than amateur kluge that requires other kluges in your system to be able to use it.TheGreenBow seems to work, but their support takes a day to respond, and, it is an expensive alternative to something that is supposed to be included with the product.2) Linksys support left me frustrated.They require that you have the serial number for your router unit. If you are away from the office and cannot get the serial number, you are out of luck. It does not appear in the admin login for our unit.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
