Re: Cisco VPN transparent tunneling options

I would avoid ipsec passthru. It is buggy on most home routers. Even though it works for you now a firmware upgrade or a router swap could break the functionality.

The standard is NAT-T which is similar to Cisco's "UDP transparent tunneling" (Cisco does not follow the standard in some areas) and is the most commonly mode for users behind home routers. Cisco's "TCP transparent tunneling" is not used as often since it creates more overhead on the concentrator thus reducing the total number of clients able to connect at the same time. However it can be more reliable then UDP in the face of poor connections.

I'd start with UDP and if you encounter problems staying connecting try TCP.
