I use 2 VPN's from home over a VM connection. Both are rock solid, 1 runs on a Cisco PIX 501 and the other is just a server running OS X 10.5.

Have you tried removing the Netgear wireless router and trying to keep a connection up?

I know some routers you have to enable VPN tunneling before you can connect outbound to a VPN server, but IIRC you can't change many options on the VM supplied hardware?
