VPN

[Brandon]

Hello...I have a Linksys router at my home with multiple
computer behind it. I also have a laptop i take on the
road with me when i do business. I would like to connect
to my home LAN via VPN. I have my main computer at home
established to accept incoming VPN connections. I know
this works...b/c when i connect my laptop to my home net
work...it connects.

So what settings do i have to change on my router,
computers so that i can connect to the home network when i
am traveling. I already have ISP for when i am traveling.

Thanks

Brandon

Open TCP Port 1723 and enable "PPTP Pass Through". Call using the public IP of your home router.
What model Linksys router and what version of the firmware are you running? If its a BEFSR41 look at
this thread for one users experiences with different firmware versions and VPN.
