On special request you can have an L2TP login in to AAISP - pricing is based on the usage, and is currently prices the same as usages costs on AAISP BE lines.

Some Notes from customers:

==RouterBoard==
Connecting to L2TP with a RouterBoard was pretty seamless - put in the L2TP server IP, username and password and it just connects. Have to mess about with IP / Route and NAT / masquerading a bit to get devices behind the RouterBoard online but that all depends on whether you have an additional IP block and what you want to do with it anyway.

== Windows 7 ==

Connecting with Windoze 7 was almost as easy except that the default connection settings don't work. You have to edit the connection properties and on the Security tab change 'Type of VPN:' to 'Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol with IPsec (L2TP/IPSec)' otherwise it only tries PPTP, and change 'Data encryption:' to 'Optional encryption (connect even if no encryption)' as it doesn't like A+A's certificate (because RevK declines to use a root certification authority recognised by Microsoft, or is it that Microsoft declines to recognise the root certification authority chosen by RevK). I guess the alternative would probably be to add the root certificate to the machine in question. Anyway, with those two changes it works fine.

== Other Hardware ==

The TL-WR741ND router works, although it can only do NAT, but is very cheap.
