I see many how-tos for installing and configuration VPN on a FreeBSD host. But all most all of these how-tos assume the client will be a FreeBSD box also. In my case I have 2 laptops I travel with, win xp & win7. The official OpenVPN website does offer clients for xp & win7 but configuration info is not available. Looking for how-to to setup VPN client on xp & win7. The FreeBSD handbook has section on IPsec/VPN, but again it assumes server and client is a FreeBSD host. Looking for how-to on setting up IPsec/VPN on xp & win7. I have 2 concerns. How much hesitation will VPN inject into watching tv programs or movies on my laptops in a foreign country? Will IPsec/VPN inject longer hesitations? Can I use the remote VPN client to start the show streaming and then have the VPN host record the program? Later down loading the program file to my laptop for viewing? Thanks
