    Hello MarjanMP, 

     

    Welcome to the community! 

     

    The FVS114 is one of the first VPN Firewall models that we have and only supports IPSec VPN (Box-to-box and Client-to-Box). It uses a special VPN client software to be installed on the remote PC (VPN01L and VPN05L). However, this software was last updated for XP computers so I'm in doubt if this will work on Win7(even on compatibility mode). Download for the software is not available anymore but can be requested through the support channel. 

     

    Let us know if you have more questions. 

     

    Thanks,

      Dear JohnRo,

       

      Thanks for reply.

      It seems would be better to buy a new model of VPN Firewall. Do you have any suggestion which model works on win7?

       

       

      Regards

        Hi MarjanMP,

         

        You may select among the latest ProSAFE VPN Firewall Series of NETGEAR which are the FVS336Gv3, FVS318Gv2, FVS318N and SRX5308.  Kindly check their comparison on this data sheet.  All of the VPN Firewalls I have mentioned supports Windows 7. 

         

         

         

        Regards,
