   Yes

   Too many to mention.   
      
   Have you even bothered to look at the Linksys website? If it says VPN   
   endpoint then you can bet the device is limited to 1 or 2 simultaneous   
   VPN connections.  If it says VPN router then it's likely 50 simultaneous   
   VPN connections.  I would never suggest using any of these routers if   
   you have anywhere close to 50 simultaneous connections running.  But for   
   connecting a handful of sites it should work.  Perhaps if you had 50   
   home office users that only access the VPN connection occasionally it   
   might work but I imagine even doing key renegotiations for 50 unused   
   tunnels might stress out a Linksys router.   
      
   If you need to connect sites and you consider this link important then   
   you should get a consultant who has experience in this area.  Your   
   diagrams seem to indicate that you don't quite "get it".
