Cable/DSL VPN Router
he Instant Broadband™ EtherFast Cable/DSL VPN Router
from Linksys is the ideal solution for remotely accessing
a network securely over the Internet using cutting-edge
encryption and authentication methods. 
Built from the popular standard Linksys 4-Port Router Model
BEFSR41, the VPN Router expands its functionality and security
feaures by utilizing 56-bit DES and 168-bit 3DES encryption, and
Internet Key Exchange (IKE).  A built-in IPSec co-processor from
Hifn allows for complete data privacy for the access and
exchange of your most sensitive data from your home to your
corporate network or between remote branch offices without the
additional cost of IPSec VPN client software for each computer.
Mobile workers can also connect to a corporate network using
an IPSec based VPN client software solution.  The EtherFast
Cable/DSL VPN Router is capable of conducting up to 70 simul-
taneous IPSec VPN tunnels while allowing additional savings
with no upgrade fees or technical support costs.  
The VPN Router is compatible with other major IPSec VPN
devices and IPSec VPN client software as well as virtually all
major operating systems and standards, which makes the setup
and use simple for home and corporate office. The Instant
Broadband™ EtherFast® Cable/DSL VPN Router is a simple
solution for your broadband 
needs.
