ADSL
|
ADSL Router - possibly with wireless functionality
|
Switch - if your ADSL Router does not have wireless functionality, connect a
wireless access point to one of the switch ports
|
External NIC on SBS box
|
ISA Server
|
Internal NIC on SBS box
|
Switch
|
LAN

This way, you can connect wireless clients to the outside of your network
and VPN into your network if required. Regardless of how you configure your
security on the external side, you retain another level of protection
between your wireless network and your internal LAN.

David
