The VFG6005 is a small yet powerful VPN Firewall Gateway for the small/home office. Protect your network from outside threats with the VFG6005 SPI Firewall that can automatically block Denial of Service, spoofing attacks and even applications that can pose a security risk to your outgoing data. IPSec and PPTP VPN support allow you flexibility in using either enterprise grade IPSec VPN Client software or Window's built in VPN Client so you can create a secure remote connection to your network, accessing it from anywhere on the road. VPNC certification guarantees compatibility with existing VPN equipment to create secure Site-to-Site tunnels between branch offices. Lightning fast Firewall and NAT performance ensures that the VFG6005 series will not be the bottleneck of your Internet connection as it can support up to 75 times the speed of the average ISP service plan. Having a cost effective VPN firewall gateway in today's challenging economy will allow you to keep business running as usual without the added expense.

mediorcre range; easy web interface . I bought two Zyxel routers to setup both a site-to-site VPN between my regular office and my home office, and user VPN logins for two staff while they are on the road. As of September 2011, Zyxel has a problem with LT2P and IPsec in their firmware which they are fixing. The PPTP VPN works fine and was easy to setup.
This router can produce two Wifi SSIDs, e.g., Workers and Guests. You can separate them so that Guests cannot see devices that have connected to workers *wirelessly*, but if a device is connected by a cable - e.g., a server, a printer -- that device can be seen by both SSID networks, thus making the dual band feature useless unless all your devices are WiFi.
The range is disappointing. My Linksys does a better job.
The router is easy to setup, and I am happily removing my expensive Cisco router which required an external Cisco certified consultant every time I wanted to make a change. I setup our PPTP VPN in less than five minutes, which was a relief! Zyxel's telephone support answered quickly when I called, although what they told me was about the limitations of the router without offering a fix for the problems. This router was less sophisticated and less customizable than I expected from the literature but seems to be performing reliably for basic functions.

ZyXEL Gigabit Firewall VPN Router (VFG6005) Reviews
Easy enough to setup and works just fine . At the time of this writing, reviews on this product were few and far between. I went ahead and gambled on the purchase. This unit has replaced an older USR8200 VPN router, a small Gigabit hub and a B/G WiFi access point. That was my intent, to replace 3 devices with one while upgrading to wireless n. The unit was easy enough to configure for someone that knows what they're after although I wouldn't call it a no brainer. After a few months of being up and running, the unit has proven stable and reliable. So like any new tech, you may have a couple headaches getting everything up and running the way you want it but once configured, this little unit seems to be a solid performer. I have not yet connected my USB modem so I cannot comment on how well that fail-over feature works.
