Re: Could I have your suggestions?

Sorry that I haven't responded till now, I've been doing a lot of
reading and such wanting to know more of what I'm saying/asking before
responding.

I think I understand most of the questions that I asked before. What I
am still not 100% sure of is, what specific advantage does setting up a
DHCP server and using that server to hand clients over VPN ip
addresses... it just seems like extra bandwidth being taken up to me.
But, I've heard by many people that this is the way to go, so I trust
that it's the right decision. However, when implementing this - I know
the boss is going to ask "why do we need this?"

Next, about the VPN connection - my budget is rather limited. There are
6 offices, with approximately 3 computers at each office. I have found
this device:

If I have one of these routers are each office (including the main
office), will this work?

Thanks,
Cyp.
