I have a network of BEFVP41 VPN routers connecting various remote offices
together. All of the offices have broadband connections with Dynamic IP
addresses. These routers seem to be working OK. I only have two issues:

1. Occasionally, when one of my sites has an IP address change, I need to
reboot the VPN routers to connect properly.
2. Ideally, I would like to set up one tunnel from each of my remote sites
to my central office, and be able to route from one branch office thru the
central VPN router to each of the other remote offices. The BEFVP41 router
will not do this (I need to set up a separate tunnel between each pair of
offices).

I am adding a new remote office soon, and am wondering if I should buy an
RV042 VPN router, or stick with the existing BEFVP41.

Does anyone have any experience with the RV042 routers who could advise me
if it is worth the extra cost to vs. the BEFVP41?

Thanks,
