Does exactly what it should do
Reviewed by Anonymous Review Posted 30/09/2009
Got my first license for this software with a netgear router and was able to establish good, reliable connections to both netgear and other manufacturers hardware without issue.
Have since purchased further licenses to get other users accessing remotely and this client software has been successful where other software has failed.

It does not do what it says on the box!
Reviewed by Anonymous Review Posted 12/09/2008
I bought this software hoping to establish VPN with my Netgear Router DG834. I followed all instructions in the manual and was unable to establish connection. I then looked up all possible troubleshooting articles on the web and tried various settings but all unsuccessfully. This product is a sham and complete waste of valuable time. Do not fall in the same trap buying it, thinking that it can work well with Netgear products. In fact, it can not work well with any brand. I am so disappointed!
