Can I get VPN to work on a router level (as opposed to just on my PC)?

You need a router that can act as a VPN 'endpoint.'  Your router doesn't do that.  See the link below for a list of Linksys routers that can be endpoints (and other related information).\n\nHowever, yif you are running Windows XP you should be able to have one PC connect to the company VPN and have all the other use that connection.  They would connect through the PC that is running the VPN.  Use Internet Connection Sharing to do this.  See the second link below.

You're right ME does suck.  But, if you networking with a router, all you'll need to do is make sure TCP/IP is on Auto assign IP address, and auto dns.\n\nAnother thing that might make life easier to to make sure all the computers on the network share a common work group name.\n\nwindows XP and ME ARE compatiable... infact.. windows 95, 98, 98se, ME, xp home, xp pro, server.. etc are all compatiable.

The problem is that on DSL, you do not get a public IP address on your computer. Your router gets one and then your it gives your computer a private IP address. This is called NAT (Network Address Translation). \n\nIn order to use a VPN on a DSL connection, you need to either route a public IP to your computer, which will probably require you to purchase one from your ISP and will require them to help you set it up, or you will need to set up some port forwarding in the router to forward the ports that the VPN program communicates on.\n\nRight now, when you connect to a remote computer, it sees that traffic as coming from the IP address of your router, since your computer IP is private. When it tries to send information back, the router says "Hey! I don't know what this is!" and drops the packets. Port forwarding tells the packets which local IP address they should go to and having a public IP on your computer makes that step unnecessary.\n\nYou will definitely need to call your ISP on this, but I hope my explaination helps to clarify.

Well, you should be able to get into your router's setup from one of your PCs (methods for this vary, consult the router's  manual) and disable *just* the wireless network. Anyone physically plugged into the router would still be able to get online, so if the laptop is the only thing connecting wirelessly, that would work.

Hi, since I don't know anything about your router I can't say anything, but if you want to connect your laptop and desktop, you can use the ethernet cable (for connecting two pcs).  Go to Control Panel, then Network Connection then right click the Lan connection and to properties.  Now highlight Internet Protocol and the hit properties.  Assign the IP address 10.1.1.1 to one and 10.1.1.2 to another.  Now for subnet put 255.255.255.0 in both. Say okay and now your laptop and desktop should be able to see each other in the workgroup.  You would have to individually share the folders/drives you would want the other to see.

You need a router.... it will  allow you to use whatever pc you want.... also the router allows all pcs to access at the same time or individually.... you will not need to have a specific pc or number of pcs on at any given time... \ngood luck

The best way id to create a subnet scheme on both sides and the gateways. Once you have connectivity between the sites create a VPN tunnel to secure what's going across the network. This should work fine with less overhead admin.

It sounds to me like your VPN Server does not support split-tunneling, (meaning that all traffic to and from the Internet  must now go through the VPN Server), and the VPN server is blocking Internet traffic.\nMaybe run a search for split-tunneling and your VPN Server?

i don't even have a router. but i think i heard some one say they have a firewall. check it to see if it is blocking you. contact your isp for help.\n\nuntil you get it working you can ftp using an online applet. it works just as good as cute ftp. they have both regular and secure accounts. i use this everyday since i'm on a public library computer. :)\n\nof course, it's free! :)\n\nhttp://www.unlimitedftp.ca/myftp

To pull the router page on comp type 192.168.1.1 in the add bar . Leave the user feild blank and the password is "admin"\n.Once u get the page choose DHCP  configurration ,If the modem is in bridge mode.The upload and download is no ware related to the router . Contcat your ISP for that.

though it may be not perfect but it is very quick\ni think that you want to connect both pcs\n\nall u need a cable to connect both pcs\nthen go to one pc and make setup "network connection" wizard in control panel  and choose from left side create a\nnew connection  then choose second option  after that choose vpn   then type you other computers name maybe this will timely helpful to you\nbye

Enable WEP or WPA encryption.  That will be in your router configuration settings, login to your router and follow the instructions that were included to turn it on.  Once you have done that when you connect to the network, Windows will ask you for the network key.  You will only have to enter it once and your computer will remember it but no one else in the area will be able to connect to the network.\n\nWPA encryption is stronger but WEP is older and hence will be compatible with older devices that may not support the WPA encryption standard.

First, you need to get a wireless adapter/card for your PC. It's likely you already have one if it's a laptop.\n\nSecondly, you need a wireless router (I have a netgear that works quite well).\n\nFinally, enable WEP security on your router. The instructions to do this are in the manual. If you have these things and need live help, I'll be happy to walk you through it.

there are quite a few solutions, but i think all of them would be a little expensive..\nyou could create a vpn between the two LAN's but i think at least one of them would require a static public IP address from your ISP, which would not be cheap (besides the VPN router)...\nyou could go wireless but using equipment more expensive than the home/office wireless routers you find in best buy..\nI dont know what game you are talking about and what networking capabilities is has, so these are just general options..

routers are just directing connections to and from computers, so it doesn't matter what kind of system you're using, just make sure the computer is setup and functioning correctly.

My preferred program is UltraVNC.  It's relatively light, and supports encryption (if security is important).  Very simple to setup, and once you setup, its one click connection to your pc.\n\nIf you want an  easy way to connect them together through routers without port forwarding, try hamachi. It's a zero config vpn program that is always encrypted.  It will make your computers think that they are on the same local area network.
