Yes, the speed with the VPN01l/VPN05L client is quite good--better, in
fact, than using two BEFVP41 boxes connected to each other, for some
reason. (DSL is the connection medium at both ends, and the maximum
upload speed is 128kbps--that's the limiting factor.) If you're using a
modem at one end, then yes, it will be sluggish. You'd have to buy a
Citrix server in that case.

I also tried SSH Sentinel some time ago with the BEFVP41, and it worked
fine but was somewhat slower, as I recall. I also notice that using
3DES encryption is noticeably slower compared to DES, but that's the
price of greater security.

One more note: The client PC I'm using is a Pentium III/500Mhz
notebook, so even a computer that old will work with acceptable
results.
