* Connecting a small remote office
By Ron Nutter
Q: I’m looking for some advice on connecting a very small office with about six users to a main office that will provide file and print sharing and e-mail. Currently, I have a point-to-point connection with a small router using the DSL link to connect to the main office router. It is a nailed-up connection, but the problem seems to be speed and lack of any at all.
Would you have any suggestions on how I can inexpensively change the current setup without running a T-1?
A: Since you mention this is a nailed-up connection, in answering I will assume you’re running some type of VPN between locations. First, look at your DSL configuration. When using a VPN connection, it is best that you have the same speeds up and down on the connection.
