Toasty the ipsec passthru is a much better way to go, your wife's computer will be somewhat more secure that way. Also if your wife's work has a split-tunnel mode she won't need to be worried about going through their proxy as only traffic destined to _employer_name.com will be routed through the tunnel.
Bummer I didn't catch this thread sooner, I've been swamped with work and don't get the chance to visit MS as much as I did before.

^ ^ Your wife has a computer? There's your problem. Have her connect to your neighbor's router and your problems will be solved.
I love being able to connect through mine

Evidently, I need to change the settings on my (Linksys WRT54GX2) Wireless Router so that my wife can use her work laptop on our system. The instructions I have are as follows:
1. Log into router
2. Set up router such that when laptop is used it is assigned a specific (which I assume means static) IP address.
3. Set up IP address as a DMZ
Number 1 is no problem, but I'm at a loss when it comes to #2 and #3. Anyone have any wisdom they could share?
to get info from other people using Linksys products
i bought a cheap linksys wrt54g and installed ddwrt firmware, linux based. it's amazing!
i can do anything i need, even traffic shaping
but, coming back to the topic, you might need to assign a fixed ip, unless your router's dhcp server allows you to fix ip address for certain mac addresses.
regarding security, i'm using WPA2 Personal and works perfect, performance loss is almost null on my notebook.
i have also set up the mac filtering options for wireless access
if you want more help, send me a pm or add me to msn and i'll try to help you by getting the manual and guiding you
^ ^ Ha ha ha. That's great. People are going way too far with this stuff. Although, my wife is on my neighbor's network because we all know you don't let a woman on a computer and if she is, you make damn sure she's not on your network.
i've just bought a new linksys (WAG325N) wireless-N gateway and usb network adapter a couple of days ago and i cant seem to get it to work properly ....
the range on the wireless-N is great but the speed i get is far worse than that of my old wireless-G set and the thing is that i've put in the exactly same settings in the new wireless-N gateway as my old wireless-G gateway
does anyone has the same gateway and encounter the same problem?
Sorry, can't help you there. My brother has that Extreme N wireless router from D-Link and it works great. I'm on the Pre-N router from Netgear and never have any problems. I've got all of our PCs, laptops and game systems connecting to it.
might be a linksys thing then ... been reading up on forums and apparently people had been having issues with WAG325N ... probably would have to call linksys up for an exchange or something
I have read people having tons of connectivity problems with N series Linksys routers.
While I would never buy another networking related brand (for the household), I would definitely recommend waiting until the Draft N is finalized.
The other thing you can do is check their website for a firmware upgrade. If you dont find a firmware upgrade, you can try installing dd-wrt (www.dd-wrt.com) - have been running it for a while now (after an initial nightmarish experience) and have no complaints with it. It may fix your problems (though I dont know if they have released N capable firmware, recommend checking their site)

I won't be back until next Tuesday, so if Get Carter is the correct answer, I would appreciate of someone else posts a new cap for me
not sure, it may have been finalized but a lot of the routers are being sold as " a/b/g "Draft N", I just presumed they're awaiting the stamp of approval from the IEEE
