VPN Router

[Bismuth]

Hi,

I am looking for a VPN Router, basically one that I can setup to use VPNs like HMA (which I am currently subscribed to). Ideally if you get a combination of this with ADSL/WiFi, that would be great, if possible.

HMA themselves list a ton, I prefer D-Link, but don't mind which brand I get.

What are my options here?.

HMA uses standard VPN protocols like PPTP, L2TP and OpenVPN.

Routers (that does not include ADSL modems) that supports DD-WRT/OpenWRT/Tomato firmware should have good OpenVPN support and possibly good support for the other VPN's too.
For example the Asus RT N53 router has PPTP and L2TP VPN support, and you can flash it with DD-WRT if you want to.

I don't really know of any ADSL modems that has VPN support (except for VPN passthrough, which pretty much all of them has).

If you have a dedicated download server/PC, then you can also use that to connect to the VPN and give the other devices access to it!

Uniterm Direct also sells TP-Link routers & modems, which are very well priced for what they offer. Please just take note that all prices are excluding VAT on their website! http://www.dbg.co.za/index.php?cPath=1_55_57
I'm not sure if HMA supports IPSec though. If it does, then the following ADSL modem/router that supports IPSec VPN tunnels could be a good option: http://www.dbg.co.za/product_info.php?cPath=1_55_57&products_id=383
