Title: Twin RRCs and VPN
Post by: VE3CFK on 2017-10-07, 16:16:35

This topic has been previously posted in 2016 with not much response.

Hoping that new experiences can be shared with me.

I have twin K3s, RRCs and NO public ip address.
Am exploring a VPN solution.
One recommendation from 2016 has been a Raspberry Pi.  I'm not particularly interested in this approach.
I see commercial VPN providers and also commercial and free software for VPN implementation.

Any guidance would be gratefully appreciated.

Hi mate,

You can use a lightweight VPN like L2TP to get to your network or you can simply open ports in your router. You only need 3 ports to work (13000, 13001 and 13002). Not so risky I think if you switch off your RR Radio unit when you are not operating remotely.
