Hi Bjorn,

IPSec clients or servers are not supported at all. This is because the NAT
for the ASUS external only suports TCP or UDP, and not IPSec-ESP. Future
firmware releases may hold some promise, but don't count on it. I guess that
means every part of IPSec is an issue ....

You also can't run a PPTP client from the LAN side, as the ASUS NAT breaks
GRE. The helpful ASUS engineers mentioned that PPTP will work if you turn
off NAT. Obviously this is a little tricky with JetSt* in NZ.

Regards,

Nik
