Not sure if srs.

Nope, it's still utterly crap, it will connect, route for about 3 seconds and then just fail out. Don't have a problem with an XP client.

Looks like the same flimsey box that my last company used to sell their firewall distribution on, I would much rather have a terminal size box or a rack mountable, personally.

Laptop, usb>serial cable, CD wallet, toolkit, usb pen. If I need to do cabling I have another box I grab which has cable, crimpers and ends but I don't carry it with me.

This is why I didnt think the firebox would be up to it as the older ones on ebay are p2's!

I didn't have any issues when I was running this on windows XP and nothing has changed router end, it just doesn't seem to play nicely with windows 7. I've even setup a new box to test it on but it's just as flaky. At this rate I might end up going back to PPTP :eek: :( /edit seems to be...

What's your budget?

As I have said, it is still dropping the connection with or without those 2 additional lines :(

I have found untangle to be heavier on the load, it struggled a bit on an old dell p3, maybe it was just a shit box lol.

I'm concerned the firebox's aren't powerful enough for untangle, is this worry unfounded?

I'm jumping on pandora, looks good from what I've seen so far and its free :)

Unfortunately this is what I have been doing, doesn't seem to make any difference. For the record I am connecting to a dgteam netgear DG834GT. When I connect sometimes I can ping the netgear, most of the time I can't but if I can it won't last and it brings down everything including my net...

Why doesn't the dialer for windows work properly? It just will not route properly, and if it does, then it only does it for a couple of minutes and then drops it for no apparent reason. I've added the standard fix of "route-method exe route-delay 2" but this makes no difference, it connects...

That's how you learn man, break it and then fix it! Personally, I would setup the box with esxi (piece of piss) and install a virtual 2003 server on there and then maybe an XP client depending on what kind of hardware you have. Creating a small virtual network environment allowing you to...

We used to use a half height closed box/rack which had AcoustiPack on all the sides and 2x120MM fans on top and an open bottom, running 2xPE1950's it reduced the noise by about 90% and the heat didn't seem to be a problem in either summer or winter, mind you our summers are distinctively...
