   Exactly what I'm trying to do with an FWAG114. There's an error in the   
   doc and I can't get remote from anywhere to config. Only works with a   
   hard coded endpoint. I have to get it from some DHCP server and reconfig   
   thru the FWAG114 web interface before I can start the VPN while traveling.

   Pretty much describes my experience with Netgear over the above problem.   
   Keep looking.
