I'm running Tomato Firmware v1.28 on an older buffalo router for the VPN CLient, just because I already had that version on the router and it had VPN support. . My primary router is an ASUS and is running Tomato Firmware v1.28.9054 MIPSR2-beta K26 USB vpn3.6.
It aso has vpn support although I don't use it on that router. lopaka ________________________________ From: Scott Sipe <csco...@gmail.com> To: hardw...@lists.hardwaregroup.com Sent: Monday, September 16, 2013 6:17 PM Subject: Re: [H] Using two routers at the same time. but only one for WiFi Are you running tomato with OpenVPN? What tomato distribution/mods/plugins/whatever do you use? I've only ever used the stock tomato without VPN and would love to give it a shot.
