VPN Tunnel between ASA and WRT54GL

[Svetoslav Simeonov]

Hello everyone,

i have ASA5505 and Linksys WRT54GL router. I have installed DD WRT software on the router and now in the VPN menu i have

PPTP Client and Server

OpenVPN Client and Server

this is on the one side. On the other side i have ASA5505. The problem is - i don't know how to connect them in a VPN. I have created the VPN tunnel from the ASA5505 with the Wizard -Site-to-site VPN Wizard... but how can i connect the WRT54GL to the ASA in a VPN tunnel?

Thanks

Can i connect the router to the ASA5505 with openVPN? Can you tell me other firmware to install on the router to work?

Hello Svetoslav,

No, Even though they both run over SSL they are not compatible!

Is it possible to connect to a VPN tunnel with another router of linksys ?

Hello Svetoslav,

It is possible.. No problem at all

Just make sure they both support the VPN protocol and you will be good to go
