    OK, I have been setting up VPN here also... Today I succeded some what.
    Connection is between 2 BEFSX41 routers.

    Net A (My net) running windows 2k pro
    Net B (His Net) running win XP

    I get all my computers in his Network Places
    but
    I dont...

    Now for MCP6453 the routers all handle the security and tunneling when you
    get a connection go to network properties and set up a conection for outside
    computers share the files you want and operate the system as if you added a
    new computer on you internal net.

    I did find one Item that might be helpful... each router that does this end
    point MUST be on a different subnet..
    IE: router A must have an address of say 192.168.1.1
    and router B must have the address of 192.168.2.1
