Munich / Boston – 2003-04-23. equinux Inc. has today announced a new VPN Tracker version that supports the entire range of DrayTek’s VPN featured Vigor Routers. Fast and secure connections to their firm’s network are now a breeze for mobile workers and telecommuters.

„The combination of VPN Tracker and Vigor Routers is the most cost-effective solution on the market to quickly and easily install a VPN for less than 500 Dollars – and can even be used over simple DSL lines with dynamic addresses“ said Frederik Seiffert, equinux’s Head of Development. „With the support of DynDNS, the use of a VPN requires neither an expensive nor static internet line.“
