A7000 replacing D-Link DRS-250, need VPN link to Netgear FVS336G
A D-Link DRS-250 router I had at home, connecting via IPsec VPN to Netgear FVS336G at office, failed suddenly and totally last week. A quick trip to BestBuy, after a chat confirmed (wrongly) that the...
What is it that you bought?
You have posted in the section for USB wifi devices, but you talk about routers.
AC1900 is not a Netgear model number. It is a label that Netgear, and others, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
I know OpenVPN is a wrapper for SSL, question is, can it talk to the SSL of the FVS336G?Really? You lost me there.
Excuuu.u.s.e. me.e.
What a useful, helpful response.
Here's a copy of an internet ad for the product in question:
Netgear AC1900 Nighthawk Dual-Band Cable Modem Router
You are right, A1900 was incorrect. I certainly can't expect the expert community to be able to figure out what I was referring to.
Happily, I no longer need help. I was able to determine on my own that the Netgear product can't do IPSec VPN,
I was also able to reset my D-Link DSR250 and get it back in service, so I will now return the AC1900
ffor refund, and stay with a product that can do the job.
Your response reassures me that I was right to look elsewhere, and not repeat the mistake of yet another Netgear product claimed to do something it actually can't do.
Keep up the good work.

That's good. No more questions from someone who doesn't know how to describe something they have bought, or what they want it to do, let alone finding the right place to ask for help.
Good luck with whatever you end up buying. You may need it.
