Please log in for more thread options The VPN connection is standard Windows 2003 RRAS server so anything that can
connect to that should be fine. I believe we are setup for both PPTP and
L2TP so 1723 and 47 as well as 1701 and 500.
I don't mind a little larger size on the device just as long as I can put it
in my pocket. I could use it for email, however I might not since I don't
get emergency emails. I get emergency phone calls. I just need it as a
remote management device to connect to my XP desktop or Windows servers when
it is not feasible to bring my laptop.
Bonuses I would like to have
1. A QWERTY keyboard would be a real plus since I sometimes have to do
something from the command line on the remote machine.
2. I would prefer to use this to replace my phone as well, but if I can get
a screen with higher resolution I would forgo the integtrated phone option.
3. 802.1x wireless would be nice for when I am in the office and working on
something away from my desk.
