Re: Finding a VPN end point

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the link.  I did contact SonicGuard.com and they are 
willing to sell it to me for $400.00 + CA Sales tax which brings the 
total to $433.00 so even with their lowest price guarentee they are 
$33.00 higher.

Is anyone using other solutions for VPN end points?  With a box in 
this price range I would just like to make sure I'm making the best 
choice.  One of my reservations is a throughput comparison that 
shows wireless running at a maximum of 3.1 close up and 3.0 at 
160 feet.  While that speed is excellent at 160 feet since so many 
others drop off to zero all the others were tested at almost double 
the speed at close ranges.  You can see the results of the test at:
http://www.sonicwall.com/newsroom/pdfs/PC_Mag_AccessPointPer
formance.pdf
It's at the bottom listed as SonicWall SOHO TZW
Since I am usually around 25 feet and the D-Link AirPlus Enhanced 
DI-614+ is rated at 6.4 at 60 feet I was just wondering if anyone 
else has had good experiences with other products.  I am rarely at 
160 feet to take advantage of the SonicWall although once in a 
while it would come in handy.

Thanks,

Gary Kuznitz

PS:  I don't work for any of the companies mentioned.  I just want to 
be a happy user.
