Re: Using Vigor 2600VG and asterisk

["ianh1000" <ianh1000@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am also considering one of these but have a question on the print
server. I use a software VPN to my works network, as soon as I start
the VPN I can't see anything on the local LAN so can't share a
printer. Is it possible that I could still see the print server on
the router?


THanks in advance
