People who want secure remote access to PCs at their home or small business while on the road typically turn to services such as GoToMyPC and PCAnywhere, but those options can get expensive with multiple users and PCs. Buffalo Technology offers an economical alternative: a Wi-Fi router that accepts VPN (virtual private network) connections and provides file access and even remote PC control.

Like other 802.11g Wi-Fi routers, Buffalo's $190 AirStation 125 High-Speed Mode Wireless Secure Remote Gateway (WZR-RS-G54) lets networked PCs share broadband Internet access and community files and printers. You can also configure it as a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol server that lets you log in remotely using most standard VPN clients (including Windows XP's).
