The main office have the internet connection (optical fibre). The remote location is connected to the main office using a vpn (main office - FreeBSD with IPsec and racoon; remote location Linksys router BEFVP41, connected to a radio modem). So far, so good. The contract is with a small provider, actually just a dealer of a bigger one. Until now the big one has managed the bandwith, but this has to be changed. The dealer is using pptp to manage the clients sitting on the optical fibre of the actual provider, but none of them have the need of vpn to remote locations. Any suggestions? Cristian Salan
