Product Details of Linksys EtherFast BEFVP41 Broadband Router

Description

The Instant Broadband EtherFast Cable/DSL VPN Router from Linksys is the ideal solution for remotely accessing a network securely over the Internet using cutting edge encryption and authentication methods. Built from the popular standard Linksys 4Port Router Model BEFSR41, the VPN Router expands its functionality and security features by utilizing 56bit DES and 168bit 3DES encryption, and Internet Key Exchange (IKE). A built-in IPSec coprocessor from Hifn allows for complete data privacy for the access and exchange of your most sensitive data from your home to your corporate network or between remote branch offices without the additional cost of IPSec VPN client software for each computer. Mobile workers can also connect to a corporate network using an IPSec based VPN client software solution. The EtherFast Cable/DSL VPN Router is capable of conducting up to 70 simultaneous IPSec VPN tunnels while allowing additional savings with no upgrade fees or technical support costs.

Easy to use.

Strengths: The web-based interface makes it easy to configure.

Weakness: Setting up a VPN can be complicated. Read all the help and follow it carefully.

The product works great as a basic router and 100MB switch. You can easily add another switch to it, if you need more ports. The fact that it has a built-in VPN function (not an endpoint), means you can connect remote offices together. But it is complicated to set up a VPN, even with the web-based utility that is easy to use.

Weakness: price

It looks good but the speeds could be faster so it is still very descent but i still recomend to shop around to get a better one with better speeds at a better price

Etherfast Cable/DSL VPN Router w/4-Port Switch

Strengths: great price

Weakness: Set up is not very easy

This product works very well for the price. It can actually perform as well as the products that are twice or three times more expensive. The great thing about this is I can log into my office securely from any hot spots. However, the set up and configuration is a challenge. It took me few hours to figure it out but it's worth it.

Linksys BEFVP41

The Linksys BEFVP41 is an advanced Cable/DSL router with a 4-port 10/100 switch for sharing wired connectivity throughout a small household or business.
