Site-to-Site IPsec VPN on Wi-Fi router

Hi there !

 

Does anyone can tell me if there is a Netgear Wi-Fi router which can form Site-to-Site IPsec VPN connection between 2 Wi-Fi routers through WAN connection ?

I know that such feature exists on Netgear firewalls, but can you have the same feature on any Wi-Fi router ?

 

Cheers!

Michael

    Welcome to the community, qualxarnu

     

    Home routers can't do box-to-box VPN connection. It can only do VPN passthrough.

    Only the Business products supports such feature.

    If you're looking for a wireless router that supports VPN, check FVS318N.
