Not quite what you want, but I have no trouble with outbound

I've had to backrev some Linksys firmware recently. But I imagine their
lack of inbound support is on purpose. The smallest Cisco PIX, the 501,
sells for just under $400. They'll terminate both PPTP and IPsec
tunnels. You can do the same with one of D-Link's SOHO boxes, too, though.

The odd thing is that I'm having trouble with the IPsec client on the
SX41 working with the IPsec server on the PIX. Another user has an RV082
which is a larger, Cisco branded unit that also includes an 8 port
switch and dual WAN ports for failover -- pretty cool in case you want
cable and DSL. If I have any better luck with it, I'll be sure to post
my results.
Yes, the DFL-80 has an IPsec client that works with the PIX. It also has
a PPTP client and PPTP server. I've had good luck using both of those
with the PIX as server and Windows as client, respectively. I wish the
Linksys boxes had PPTP client. It would make my life much easier.
