Product Description

Let the Linksys USB VPN and Firewall Adapter protect your PC and your communications wherever you go. This easy-to-pack, lightweight, network interface with advanced safety and security features connects you to the Internet through any broadband connection (cable, DSL, or your hotels fast Internet service), and protects your PC from most known Internet attacks with a powerful Stateful Packet Inspection firewall. You can also optionally block Java, Active X, and Cookies -- known points of entry for hackers. The Adapter connects to virtually any PC through the USB port, and requires no external power supply. Once youre connected, you can establish a Virtual Private Network tunnel from your PC to a corporate network using the popular IPSec VPN standard, and your transmitted data will be protected by government-spec DES or Triple-DES encryption. Its also a perfect traveling companion to the Linksys Firewall Router (BEFSX41) or VPN Router (BEFVP41) on your home or small office network. You can securely connect to your home resources to retrieve files, or check your local email. Once youre connected over VPN, its just like being attached to the local network. With the Linksys USB VPN and Firewall Adapter protecting your PC and communications, youll have one less thing to worry about when youre traveling.

This review is from: Cisco-Linksys USBVPN1 USB BPN and Firewall Adapter (Personal Computers)

Easy to setup, personal firewall. Tunnel was easy to setup and utilize. Works with the older and newer Linksys VPN products.

Would like to see the device made smaller but still easy to port.
