Looking for a router that can connect to a VPN

[dawks]

We run a Microsoft RRAS VPN and would like a remote location to be able to connect to our network over the internet. I believe there are routers that can be set up to connect to a VPN and would automatically route traffic around for us. Are there any low cost ones that can do this? (>$200).


I know there are routers that can host VPN so remote users can connect to those routers via VPN software but thats not what we need of course.

Thanks.

Do you mean that you need a Router that is VPN End Point?

I.e., the Router does the VPN not just letting it through.

Most brands have one, search for "Router VPN End Point".

Yes. Pretty well all routers can be configured to pass through VPN, but we're looking for a router that actually connects to a VPN server. Looks like VPN endpoint is what we are looking for.

Thanks.

DD-WRT can do this.

as Drebo stated, dd-wrt does this and quite well IMO. I have 2 DD-WRT's which both act as VPN endpoints to each other with SOHO routers (1 buffalo and another Asus). If the connection is ever broken, it re-creates itself as soon as the link is re-established (I use DDNS in case the IP happens to change) The only time our link has ever been broken is when I intentionally unplugged it to see what would happen and how long it would take to re-establish. I was impressed.
