Best router with a VPN server to replace Sky router

[XysteR]

Currently on Sky FTTC with the stock black SKY router which is rubbish.

I'm looking to replace this with a modem and router. The router must have built-in VPN server capability.

Any recommendations for both the modem and router?

That was the only thing that worries me, however I know a lot of people are using their own hardware and not had any problems. This was what prompted me to took into it. Thanks for the info on the gear, I'll check them out.

Sky can like it or lump it. I'm doing it...

Yeah I know. I've done a fair bit of reading on this recently, and I've not seen an instance where anything negative happened. I'm fine though, I'm outside of contract at the moment - If anything was to happen I'll just jump ship to BT fibre anyway.

Will do.

Andy, I have the ASUS RT-N66U in my list as it keeps coming up in my searches with good reviews - The price seems nice too. Which modem make/model are you using with it - I'm assuming you're using an HG612. If so does the HG612 need any modification? I already downloaded the latest Merlin firmware RT-N66U_378.55_0 and I have now wiresharked the user and password from my Sky SR102. so it looks like i'm set on getting a ASUS RT-N66U with HG612

The Draytek's are nice. but quite pricey compared to the Asus. I'll take a look at the TD-W9980's too.

Thanks for the info everyone. It's much appreciated
