   Evidently not, from what I've seen.  I've downloaded and installed the   
   Draytek "Smart VPN" client, but have yet to get it to connect.  In   
   looking through the log on the router, it shows an attempt to connect,   
   which fails either because of "lack of IKE proposal" or the one I just   
   saw in the log:  "[Access Policy not found, dropping packet Src 31178   
   Dst 1026 from WAN]"   
      
   I've got to go through the manual and see what I'm missing.  Evidently,   
   the request to connect to the router from the WAN is coming in, but the   
   connection is failing.
