Re: Remote user catch 22

My home network is an sbs 35 user network with a netgear firewall and a
wireless internet connection (i believe it is 2gb/1gb) the remote location is
3-4 users and a netgear router nad cable internet. They wish to have outlook
internet and access to files on the company folder (shared excel sheets).

Right now they use the software firewall and all works pretty well. it'a a
little slow.

I think we need a better description of your remote office (equipment,
workstations operating system, number of users, type/speed of broadband
Internet access, etc.) and the same for your main office. Also, what are
your goals for the remote users (email access, file sharing. etc.).

I suggest you connect this office's network to yours via VPN or leased
line - and if it's big enough to warrant it, even put a local DC in
there.
VPN client software on individual computers is not the best option when
you've got a remote office.
