Testimonial from VirtualTrader

June 2004 Keith Porter director of VirtualTrader wrote to us:

"One of our business strategies is to have a Virtual Provate Network to our office computers so that we can share information with our "out of office" workers via our broadband connection.

We have used "low end" and "high end" equipment as a broadband device over the past 18 months and invited skilled people to configure it. As far as getting connection to the internet and acting as a network hub they have been fine, but we could not get them to provide the VPN facilities we were looking for although the manuals made many claims.

We contacted Keith Jones at Daconi one morning to discuss the issue. Keith assured us that the Draytek 2600VG could do the job as well as provide many other features like firewall, WiFi and VoIP.

Convinced by Keith, we decided to give the Vigor a go. Keith came to our office to install the device. To our delight 2 hours later we had everything working. We can now dial into the VPN from Home or even Starbucks and work as if it were in the office. We are delighted by its features, ease of use and affordability and would strongly recommend the unit and Daconi."

Thanks Keith. Daconi's research in Wisec Project (Wireless Security) has thought us a lot about VPNs.
