It justs works!
I had the Linksys LRT224 VPN router from early 2014 to 12/23/2018 router stopped working on 12/23/2018. During these four years I had great service and will buy another Linksys LRT224 VPN router should be delivered on 12/29/2018 with a four-year protection plan. With an additional Linksys LRT224 VPN router as a backup. Just installed new router and later found out that the power supply fried. Used the new Linksys power supply and my out router works great and I also have extra power supplies that will work with my new and old Linksys LRT224 VPN router. New Linksys LRT224 VPN router will be used as a backup. I have an Arris SB8200 DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem with Comcast Internet service. I use the Arris SB8200 cable modem with dual WAN output to the Linksys LRT224 dual WAN input. Comcast in this area is only offering DOCSIS 3.0 service. My network is a peer to peer LAN network but will be getting a WINS server soon. Accessing PPTP VPN using LAN IP addresses all IP addresses are charted to access information. With the WINS server I will see server Icon names instead of IP addresses. WINS server not needed for gateway to gateway VPN connections. Improvements that are needed for IPV6. Using PPTP VPN from my laptop to my VPN server to my other home servers IPV6 packets will not pass through the VPN tunnel just IPV4 packets. Only IPV4 IP addresses can be used to create a VPN tunnel using PPTP or gateway to gateway networks. My buddies are telling me that Gateway to Gateway VPN passes IPV6 packets. Next generation Linksys LRT224 VPN routers should have 10 gigabit ethernet WAN and LAN ports and one USB 3.2 WAN port for 5G. Must be able to create VPN networks using IPV6 addresses and pass IPV6 packets NAT bandwidth and IPV6 bandwidth should have 10 gigabits upstream and 10 gigabits downstream. VPN gateway to gateway bandwidth should have 2 gigabits upstream and 2 gigabits downstream. VPN PPTP bandwidth should have 200 megabits upstream and 200 megabits downstream. Comcast and other cable companies will be competing for customers against cellular operators using 5G such as AT&T, Sprint, Verizon soon for internet services. Cable companies and land line phone companies will no choice but to use FTTH (fiber to the home) and 5G technologies rather than DOCSIS 4.0. Comcast and other cable companies plus land line phone companies may offer discounts if the cable and land line phone companies can put 5G transceivers on customers roofs connected to their cable and land line phone company’s media converters. With 5G coming the difference between cable and land line phone companies will blur greatly.

Solid performer
I recently upgraded to a CM600 cable modem and bough this Gigabit router to act as a gateway. I briefly had the change to run dual Wan with TimeWarner and AT&T just a few days before I dumped AT&T. If you have two ISPs for redundancy or you want to use one connection for one type of traffic and the other everything else this Router works great. I connected this to a gigabit switch, rather than use any of the on-board ports. Setup was a breeze, especially if you are already familiar with Linksys routers. To see how it handle load, I ran speed tests while downloading large files from multiple sources. I also talked with VOIP while running these tests. This router didn't hick-up in the slightest. I'm sure it can be overwhelmed, but nothing I through at it in a worst case scenario.The interface is just like Lynksys/Cisco routers of the past, but it is a little better navigation-wise. I'm using this for home use, it might be a little overkill, but it definitely has everything you could want other than it has no wireless access. For a wireless AP, I highly recommend an Engenius ECB350.

A solid router/firewall
I like the Open VPN feature and the set up is simple. The EasyLink VPN setup to another LRT214 super silly easy. It has all the features I expected, works well and was easy to set up.It’s not perfect. The web interface takes some getting used to, and seems to require an extra click to save changes. The form factor is not my fav, Ethernet ports on the other side of the box from the corresponding status lights, and the power plug is in on the side. Largest LAN subnet is 255.255.255.0 (not really a big deal but I needed to rethink my IP assignment thinking).

Love this product and Love the AC1750 and AC1200 also by Linksys Business line.
I have this LRT214 router and also have the AC1750, and AC1200 business access point and was able to quickly create a VPN to my office, then use the AC1750's for AP and bridge to send internet to my shop. Set up was FAST and easy, and support was awesome. I found NO firmware issues that seem to plague other brands. If I shut off my internet by disconnecting the cable, then reconnect, the VPN comes RIGHT back. I have had such problems with other brands, I am switching all my equipment to Linksys... Support is getting SOOOO disrespectful with other brands, I have just had it. And the firmware mistakes with competitors is so horrible that I think a grade schooler did the programming. I believe I had American support from Linksys, but I cannot verify this. Either way, support was awesome.
