In some SpeedTouch™ products, the IPSec VPN features are bundled in an 
optional VPN software module. An optional VPN module is activated with a 
VPN software activation key. By default, this key is not installed. If you want 
to use the SpeedTouch™ VPN features, and the VPN software module is not 
activated on your SpeedTouch™, please contact your local dealer.
