I have Verizon ADSL (static ip) with a decent upload/download speed. I would like to be able to access my home network remotely (i.e. connect to a shared folder on a media PC or print a document or just access some documents on a server). What do I need exactly?
VPN router? If so, what model do you recommend?
As for the laptop - what software do I need on the laptop? This is for my laptop only, which is running WinXP Pro. Do I just go to NETWORK CONNECTIONS > ADD NEW CONNECTION and just do a VPN-type dialer?
This my 1st time setting it up and would love to learn about it a little more. Also, does Verizon (or any ISP, for that matter) block and/or prohibit accessing my own network remotely? If so, should I call them?
Thanks!
