Hi,

I wonder if anyone has any suggestions on how to setup a network to run VPN 
over wireless.

I currently have: 
Wireless Laptop ----> Router with VPN pass through ---> DSL modem.
There is also a wired desktop running Win '98se connected to the router.
The Wireless Laptop is running XP Pro sp1.

I am open for suggestions on how to run VPN over the wireless.  I just want to 
protect the wireless part of the network.  I am not connecting to any one 
particular location on the internet.

Possible solution #1
Is it possible to have one VPN end point in the Wireless Laptop and the other 
on the Win '98se PC going through the router and then go back out the 98 PC 
back through the router to the internet?

Possible solution #2
Is there a cheap end point box that I could put between the router and the DSL 
modem?

Possible solution #3
Is there a free end point on the internet I could connect to that would then 
pass me to the internet?  (I have found VPN end points on the internet that 
cost between $8.88 and 10.00/mo)

Any other suggestions?

Thank you,

Gary Kuznitz
