| Linksys USB VPN and Firewall Adapter | |
|---|---|
| Summary | Specialized miniature version of Linksys' BEFSX41 router disguised as a USB - Ethernet adapter. Intended to allow mobile clients tunnel to remote IPsec gateway |
| Update | None |
| Pros | • Easy to install
• Inexpensive compared to IPsec client software |
| Cons | • Another thing to carry on the road
• Won't work with all IPsec gateways • Windows-only |
When I first read the USBVPN1's product description, I at first thought that the folks at Linksys had lost it. But midway through writing a somewhat snarky news item about the USB VPN & Firewall Adapter, the light dawned and I realized what Linksys was up to - making an inexpensive portable mate for their extremely popular BEFVP41 and BEFSX41 VPN endpoint routers.
After my short time with the product, I think they've achieved their goal, but the results may not suit everyone's needs.
