Hi Stan, I don't think you need to say sorry to me for anything.
To confirm, your interpretation of what I was asking is correct (thanks 
for the point that the linux based WRT routers can also support PPTP 
type VPN as well - that may be worth following up).

As Lewis is the moderator of this list we should however accept his 
decision that this subject is not related to the purpose of this 
particular list.

Perhaps we can move the discussion onto the eCS Technical mailing list 
if you are a member of that list?
