What does it take to set up a wireless router to connect to a vpn service so everybody in the local wireless network surfs the internet through that vpn tunnel? What do I need to be careful about?
I'm willing to spend 200-300 on the router and VPN service, but I want to make sure I don't run into compatibility issues such as a router not using a certain protocol.
Any router or vpn service suggestions are greatly welcome as well.
I just got a Netgear FVL328 and wanted to be able to connect to my home network using this VPN router when I'm at starbucks/the airport/etc.
I've set up very simple networks before but I have very little knowledge with VPN. I've studied it a little over the internet and found protocol names like IPSec and PPTP but obviously that isn't enough to be able to set up this router.
I downloaded the router's manual from netgear's website and still don't know what to set up to achieve these very simple things
- set up the router to accept a user named user and password password to connect to my home network.
- set up a client to connect to this router without using netgear's VPN client.
You can assume I have a static IP from my ISP and minimal security is needed.
Let me know if I'm unclear.
Thank you very much.
EDIT: Also I just found out that there's a notion of VPN client hardware too. If this router is one of those, then I guess I'm out of luck.
This question is similar to SSH public key authentication - can one public key be used for multiple users? but it's the other way around.
I'm experimenting on using ssh so any ssh server would work for your answers.
Can I have multiple public keys link to the same user? What are the benefits of doing so? Also, can different home directories be set for different keys used (all of which link to the same user)?
Please let me know if I'm unclear.
Thanks.
