    CISCO Dual Gigabit WAN VPN Router - RV042G-K9-NA

    • The one great thing about the RV042G was the throughput support on the WAN and VPN connections, but for me - just having the GB WAN support wasn't enough to justify having this thing around.
    • Very nice unit,... but a couple things I do not like at all

    • But this thing works and serves a big function, so I can't complain
    • Love this thing
    • When it comes to the feature set, the only thing that really distinguishes this router from other consumer-grade routers is its genuine VPN support
    • The router would just need to detect any change to the WAN IP address for NSD to engage (rather than wait for the WAN port to disconnect, or for there to be no assigned IP address).As for VPN functionality, I have experimented with it on numerous occasions (on RV042, RV042 V3, and now RV042G), I have been able to establish a reliable Gateway-to-Gateway tunnel, but unable to set up a Client-to-Gateway VPN the way I would like
    • this Cisco RV042G seemed like the perfect fit
    • The RV042G will work as a router/firewall, but if you want VPN access or remote admin, go elsewhere
    • While the RV042G seems to work well as a router, it is NOT PCI compliant and will cause your network to fail the PCI-DSS Scan from Trustwave.
