[Cialug] Question about VPNs (OT?)

Some of the high end personal routers have a nice, simple SSL vpm solution.
As was discussed a few weeks ago, they are not ideal for top-notch security
(because of a shared, hard-coded SSL certificate) but they'll get the job
done.

These routers go for about $150.

Another solution is to get a router capable of running DD-WRT and using it.
That will give you a more secure SSL VPN and will cost you as little as $50
but does require some hands-on work. (an evening is enough)
