VPN on belkin router

Hi guys, I have the Belkin 7230 uk 4 router (can't remember all the other numbers, lol) and I wondered if I was able to access my internal network from outside via the internet. I think this would be done by VPN although I could be wrong.

Any ideas?

Not sure you need VPN just to access a computer on your home network - just some port forwarding set up on the router. Just don't askme how to do that, I've never tried it!

Re: VPN on belkin router

Thanks for the link Caster, that looks quite interesting. Do you have any experience of using that software?

I'm like you Chris, I know it can be done, many do it, but I don't really have a clue except that I had tried vpn successfully before i had a router. how would the average joe access their home network?
