Does it HAVE to be secure? First of all, it sorta sounds pathetic to ask
for max security plus 3 computers to share a 56K. Try to explain this to
them.
But if they MUST have it that way, why not, instead of vpn or secure vpn,
why not go with external LAN modem into linksys router (since they come with
a NAT firewall and stateful packet inspection)? They could even go with
broadband at a cheaper cost than to run vpn or secure vpn. Besides, no
offense, 56K isn't enough bandwidth to share over 3 computers. With today's
impatient society, it's not enough for even one computer hardly! lol
