This router supports OpenVPN but configuration isn't simple. If the installed software doesn't do it, it can run dd-wrt which does. If what you're looking for is something that can pass through a VPN connection, this can also do that. I don't recall if it came with a disc, but it is a router, there's no software to install. Once you've done initial configuration you can set it up to allow a remote user to connect to it using https.

This was a router that was recommended that I use with the company Strongvpn.com. I also lived overseas and they provided me with a US IP address. It made my life very comfortable. I was able to get US satellite channels. They also have IP addresses in a bunch of other first world countries. check them out. for me they were worth every penny (BTW, they weren't very expensive).

The device itself has a UPnP DLNA Media Server. If the ROKU has a client for that then you're good to go.

No. The Roku will work hardwired to the router, but the current speed of it is not ideal for gaming purposes.

I don't know what a DNS Service is, so I guess I don't need it. For local viewing you only need a computer, for remote viewing you need the computer hooked up to an Internet service. It is super easy to install and set up. If you have any issues at all the have great customer service to help, they answer the phone, speak English and walk you through a troubleshooting process. I highly recommend it, I have it installed it in two business locations, I can monitor employee activities and we've caught a few thieves too,

Hello, This product is an antenna. The antenna has two suction cups so you can stick it on a window if you want. I believe the DVD software installs and possesses it's own network adapter. The cord (which is very long) plugs into one of the USB ports on your laptop. The antenna simply allows you to pull in wifi networks that would otherwise not come in. As for wifi networks, most of them require passwords. I happen to live about a block away from a college so I can pull in the signal quite frequently. I would say it's worth the investment.

The Roku 2XD does not have direct internet connection available; the signal has to come from WiFi. A router is required. Once a router is installed, Roku can be located anywhere the signal reaches.

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 only needed my computer to go through the set-up process(key in codes to link some channels and register my Roku with Amazon to be able to play Prime films...) and then this little Roku only needs wifi signal to work, not my computer at all. Your internet speed needs to be at a above minimum rate so you don't need to wait for "loading" many times through out the film. I had to help one of my friends to upgrade her slow AT&T; internet to double her speed then she doesn't have those "loadings" on her screen anymore.

I tried this with Roku 3 to connect to a VGA projector. It keeps getting interrupted with digital rights management warnings.:(

It does not have the VPN cd included. But if you need the vpn client it I can put it on my ftp for you to retrieve if you purchase the ASA.Thanks,Nettech Amazon Sales Team

You shouldn't need that...here is how I have mine connected. - I have a Comcast cable modem. - I connect my Airport wireless router directly to the cable modem. - I do have hard wired ethernet to connect this switch to my Airport Express (I have cabling running between my office and living room). - I then have the switch tucked behind my TV (connected via Ethernet). - Then, all of my devices are plugged directly into this switch - TV, Denon A/V home theater, Xbox, Tivo. I believe your Roku should be connected directly to your TV via HDMI or composite/audio cable combination. Hope that helps!

I purchased this device from Amazon US, and enjoying it thoroughly. About the VPN, well like mike said , the best way to get info is to contact Sony technical assistance. and if like you say the sony logo is not showing up, that device may be faulty. talk to the sony customer service.

Comes with power supply & DVD. I don't use the DVD as I rooted it to dd-wrt. This performed well, but compared to Rosewill RNX-N150RT it wasn't as good in speed an range. I'd amagine Rosewill RNX-N300RT would be even better. Both are quite in-expensive.

As I recall, you have to subscribe to have any access to the machine. I bought a Roku 3 and use it the way you describe.
