The RVL200 features a Virtual Private Network (VPN) security engine that creates encrypted SSL tunnels through the Internet. The SSL VPN tunnels enable remote users from at home, or on the road to easily, and securely connect to the office network through a typical wired or wireless broadband connection. When used with the RV016 or other Linksys VPN router, IPSec branch-to-branch connections can be established allowing users in a remote office to connect to the corporate network. The RVL200 features a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Ethernet switch to connect four PCs directly, or additional switches. As an essential element of your business, this product provides security functions for authentication and encryption. Linksys proven SPI Firewall is integrated into the gateway providing security from outside threats. The QoS features provide consistent voice and video quality throughout your business.
Very solid product!Reviewed by Dale J., 2009-12-08
I was looking for a router to go between our T1 router and our wireless access points. This router was easy to install and very reliable. We needed a router that allowed QOS by IP addresses. Some routers only allow QOS speeds by selecting from a list. This router allows you to select your own upload and download speeds based on type of service. We also needed to be able to assign some QOS by a static IP & MAC. This router supports these features at a very good price.
Works, but not sufficient for controlled web hosting.Reviewed by T. Broberg, 2009-01-20
Seems to be relatively robust. I've had to reboot it once in the
first month when a single machine lost connectivity.
I had no problems connecting with SSL VPN.
I was fairly easily able to set up multiple subnets, but access
control between VLANs is all or nothing. There is no fine grained
control between them, and the real problem I had was that if I wall
off access between subnets, I can't access the isolated subnets
even from the internet as the packets get forwarded with the
internal addresses.
In order to host a web site, I have to choose between exposing the
server in the DMZ or putting it on my local network, which was a
disappointment for me.
No support, FTP issues, slowReviewed by tech guy, 2008-06-01
I was a real Linksys fan until I tried this guy. Now, I find myself with a router that does NOT work properly when passing FTP client traffic to the net and (when it is not rebooting) runs VERY slowly. I am in the market for another brand if anybody has any suggestions.
SSL VPN has issues with Vista - -support nonexistentReviewed by SAINT2, 2008-01-04
Works fine as a router, and SSL VPN client works fine with XP (note
that you need admin permissions on your machine to install the
virtual adaptor).
Vista is another issue. Linksys recently released new firmware 1.17
which supports Vista, and I did get it to work breifly before it
started doing some weird things.
Trying to resolve with Linksys tech support, but I am not
hopeful.
Note that this product falls into a special category - you need to
call for support. Make sure you say you are a business or you get
shunted into the "stay on hold forever and then get hung up on"
area.
update: after No call back from Linksys, returned unit and bought a
cisco 871 Cudos to Amazon for a great return policy.
As for this product. I'd have to put it in The toy category based
on the lack of Support.
RVL200 supports both IPSec and SSL VPNReviewed by Dennis, 2007-01-18
I just bought a RVL200 and completed deployment.
It supports both IPSec and SSL VPN, and several authentication
types for SSL user management. I use the existing Active Directory
Server for user management with easy configuration, and my
colleagues in branch office, work at home and outside mobile sales
people can access network resource and their desktop just like they
are at office.
You could buy one and give it a try.
