Pete,

I don't really know if its a matter of using DSL, rather than the
DSL/Cable router that SecuRemote/SecureClient is behind.  I have DSL at
home, and in my lab environment at work, and have used SecureClient for
the PC, as well as Beta tested the newly released SecureClient for OS X,
with the DSL.  Most of the DSL/Cable modem router issues that I have run
into in the past, have been due to the device not able to handle NAT-T
(NAT Traversal).

Using the Edge in a DSL environment should not be a problem, as the Edge
does have support for PPOE built into it.

HTH

Hi,

We are looking into rolling out Edge x-series boxes to
our international offices.  Many of the sites where we
work do not have the same kind of infrastructure as in
the US.  I.E. one office has a 128K up link to
satellite, and that all that is available.

Some of these sites currently use DSL.  While we have
deployed Edge boxes on cable modems, etc.  We have
none running on DSL.  Given the problems DSL can cause
for Secure Client I'm a little bit concerned.  I
really don't want to spend 16 hours flying somewhere
to install something that's not going to work.

Does any body have any experience connecting Edge
boxes with DSL.  Success stories and horror stories
both welcomed.  Information on how often it
does/doesn't work, also.  All input appreciated.

THX,
Pete Goodridge.
