I did upgrade the firmware to 1.45.7 and configured the tunnel as you said but could not even create a (vpn) log event while using a XP VPN connection that I created. (Network places|Create A New Connection|VPN|through Internet). I then dialed my ip as it shows on the wan side of the SX41 status. On the client side (portable) I played around with the security settings and I could not chose MD5 challenge option-probably because I don't have any security policies defined on it. So I managed to get error 800 and 769 . I think I am starting to get a better grasp of the concept-some would say it's about time!- and I think you might be right about using XP client fairly easily. All I have to do (I think) is set the right Ipsec policies on the client.
It 's a lot easier when you can get some answers to you questions...
A Note on firmware 1.45.7: It's been running 'bout 12 hours now and seems to have resolved a problem I had with ghost IPs. Don't know what else to call them. LAN access would periodically get denied and when I checked DHCP table it was always one PC or mac address showing 2 IP addresses usually one with the LAN Name and one without name . Up to now I thought it was a problem with the PCs XP (2 out of 5 PCs) but since I had none in the past 12 hours I am now thinking firmware. My Work around was delete both IPs from DHCP and disable/enable the NIC to refresh the IP without affecting other users ; router reset (power off) also worked .
Thanks again
