Can 2 of these routers in different locations create a vpn tunnel that puts both locations on the same LAN?

Yes. Easy to implement, just use the VPN wizard and enter the local and wan IP addresses properly. Works reliably. I get 50Mbps/25Mbps throughput. I just upgraded to the Netgear SRX5308 which gives me 110Mbps/35Mpbs on cable.

The way it works is both routers must have a different LAN IP. You could have 192.168.1.1 for one, and 192.168.2.1 for the other. Once the VPN connection is made, you can access the remote network devices by entering the static IP address of the device. As far as I know you cannot have the same IP at both locations.

Both would have a different sub but will act as though you are on the same LAN. So yes

You can create a WAN with the two routers. It is not straight forward to set up but we have done it.

This will do it, assuming you already have a tcp/ip network established between the two buildings. PSTN-&gt;SPA3102 in 1st bldg network-connected to 2nd bldg.'s VOIP server which is configured to accept SPA3102 as a gateway.

Yes it can, but it requires some configuration. You must have your other centralized router setup to permit external repeaters to rebroadcast the wifi signal. Once configured, this unit can repeat that wifi signal when configured in "repeater" mode. I don't have the manual in front of me, but the web based configuration for this unit has good help to get you going with each step. Alternatively, you can configure this access point to work in a "bridged" mode, but ensure that it works on the same wifi channel as your centralized router (don't choose "Auto" for your channel on both devices) and same wifi network name, to permit users to connect to either device on the same channel. End user devices will latch on automatically to the strongest signal on the same channel in that configuration, allowing seamless "roaming" for each user.

The manual says no. You can set it to use both on the same network for faster throughput. I have not tried, but that is what the manual says.

Yes that would work. Make sure the power outlets are on the same circuit as the router plug. Also renew the ip address on each laptop.

I used the Cisco RV215W VPN router and the QuickVPN software client and it works well. This lets you establish a secure tunnel to the router from a PC (if you don't plan to connect to it remotely you don't need the QuickVPN client).

I haven't really encountered any attempts at DDOS to answer that, but I do know there is a plethora of options for setting up a VPN. There are options within the software (provided you keep it up to date, the original shipped firmware was buggy) to specifically subnet for the VPN based on MAC address and allow the rest to be open. This allows for good control over bandwidth management if you decide not to use the built in bandwidth management software.

You can't do that, you need two separate plugins on a router to do that. If your modem only has one ethernet plug, you will need to get a router to provide for more devices.

No, You can make it in a bridge mode with a different SSID on the same network.

Yes, I use this router with 2 MacBook Pros in the house. As to the VPN functionality, It does work with the built in VPN client, but i get kicked off every 50 minutes because the Router and Computer have problems negotiating the next renewal key. There are 3rd party VPN clients that have no problems connecting to this router.

Yes. Once it's on your LAN, it can be accessed via a browser from any device on the same subnet (e.g. 192.168.100.x addresses).

Yes. By trying to use both you are creating an Ethernet loop. Ethernet is a point to point technology. Your router sees the same MAC address on two different links

Well then why get this router? Why not just have two separate wans to begin with right?

I don't think that matters. We have three units, one where the router is and two others all on different circuit breakers. Network works fine.

I believe you can. But to be honest I'm currently running DD-WRT on it (which I know for a FACT will let you do it, I use DD-WRT on another router to do just that).

Could you please let me know if this worked out for you?I am considering the same solution to tunnel all my internet traffic through VPN:one VPN-router between the router of my Internet Service Provider and the Apple Airport.It would be nice to know if you could let me know if you got your connection working!

ubnt.com's newer controller software allows one to control multiple geographically separated LANs from a single location. However, not 100% sure if the Pro version is necessary for this feature or not.
