Poe Wireless Router

The RVL200 features a Virtual Private Network (VPN) security engine that creates encrypted SSL tunnels through the Internet. The SSL VPN tunnels enable remote users from at home, or on the road to easily, and securely connect to the office network through a typical wired or wireless broadband connection. When used with the RV016 or other Linksys VPN router, IPSec branch-to-branch connections can be established allowing users in a remote office to connect to the corporate network. The RVL200 features a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Ethernet switch to connect four PCs directly, or additional switches. As an essential element of your business, this product provides security functions for authentication and encryption. Linksys proven SPI Firewall is integrated into the gateway providing security from outside threats. The QoS features provide consistent voice and video quality throughout your business.

Simple to use and it works By Victor I want to be able to view and control my IP cameras installed around my home when I am away. The IP camera I have comes with a web interface for realtime viewing from a PC in the local network. This SSL VPN router allows me to connect back to the web interface of my IP camera when I am at work. The out of the box experience is good - I have no trouble in setting it up and connect to the internet with my cable modem. After I changed my default password, created a few user accounts for my family members, and enabled the Remote Management, I put the device into test. First, I have to find the ip address that my cable company assigned to me and the ip address of my camera given by the router - all available from the router administration web interface at http://192.168.1.1. When I was at work the next day, I was able to get to the internet address of my SSL router and connect to my home network within a minute. Just want to share my success story with the community that might have the same need. The QoS feature may come to rescue when I am working from home, using my company's VPN, and my kids are playing bandwidth extensive internet games. I have to see how well it would work. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. JUNK JUNK JUNK By T. Hagglund Installed unit 1 for a client in August. Unit was easy to configure, SSL was great (minor alterations for Vista/ 7 64-bit.) Speed was adequate. NO issues. Installed unit 2 for a client in October. Unit was easy to configure. SSL was NOT used. Speed was great. Installed unit 3 for a client in December. Unit completely died/ bricked in March. Installed unit 4 for the client in March to replace unit 3. It "worked" for a week randomly kicking the (2) client machines off the network and completely died/ bricked within (1) week. Installed unit 5 for a client in March. Unit was removed from service within 24 hours as the client reported the same issues as the client above. While it did NOT brick- it was kicking (3) machines off the network repeatedly. It was dropping packets left and right during a follow up test at our office. Unit 6 was NOT even installed/ deployed. When the unit works, it is a nice unit. Easy to configure. SSL works well and is fast. Nice design, runs cool, looks nice. *NOT rack mountable. *NOT Gigabit. None of it matters though. We have a 30% failure rate at best and a 50% failure rate at worse. *2 out of 6 still in service. 1 out of 6 not even deployed and 3 out of 6 BAD. We have decided to start moving our small business clients to the ZyXel units (ZWUSG20). Better feature set, faster units, hardware isn't "tapped out" at boot and support is better. We were hoping the Cisco Small Business (Linksys) (or whatever they would like to call this line today) would be a small step up from Linksys and have a few extra features without having to go to the expense and configuration of the commercial grade Cisco gear. We were wrong. These units couldn't even survive a couple users let alone an office of 10 or 20 or heaven forbid 30-50. It's too bad. A good router at a decent price still seems to be hard to find. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Almost Reliable By Patrick McIntyre I was looking for a router for the church that I volunteer at. I needed something that was easy to install, maintain and most importantly, reliable. The internet service was also being upgraded to cable so the router needed to handle the additional bandwidth. In the past I stayed away from Linksys products due to reliability issues but I saw the Cisco name attached to this and decided to give it a try. The router was very easy to install and setup. It integrated well in the network. We were able to get the bandwidth speed tests to match what the provider gave us. All was good. Monday, I got a call saying that the internet was down. I checked it and found nothing
