Can I replace an open network iconnect 624 modem with a cisco router in a small network that needs multiple PPTP VPN connection? iconnect 624 modem doesnt allow multple simultaneous PPTP VPN channels? So if i replace this modem with a cisco 881 router, will it work for ADSL 2+ internet and multiple simultaneous VPN connection? Please advice. Thank You.

The Cisco 800-series routers are very flexible devices, but they do not have built-in ADSL modems, so you will need to provide a modem device to put on the WAN link.

You should do fine with one. We have a few of them and we have many outbound PPTP VPNs running through them.

  • @ryju - we don't do shopping recommendations on any of the [se] sites because of their very limited lifespan. See [Q and A is hard, lets go Shopping](http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/11/qa-is-hard-lets-go-shopping) and the [FAQ] for more details. However adding a simple ADSL2+ modem onto the WAN link of an 881 is cheap and easy. – Mark Henderson Apr 23 '12 at 05:22
