You will have to see if the Routers allow split tunneling of VPN thus
allowing you to browse your network and internet while connected. I have
worked with Netopia routers before with a dedicated VPN and dynamic IP.
Netopia does have good documentation explaining this setup so you might try
their website. Two VPN's connected at once with one computer will not be
possible with what you have explained. Dedicated VPN's are not easy to
setup and require some tweaking not to mention the vendor hardware you must
configure.

FYI: Why the VPN with your SBS clients? I prefer Terminal Services to
manage the server and network.
