This is the quote off the Web site: A Virtual Private Network client
running on your device. The University provides VPN clients for
Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, but others (including users of PDAs) may
have to purchase a VPN client from Movian.

I looked on the University FTP to be sure they weren't just using OS X
as a term to define "Macintosh," but they weren't lying.  There was no
VPN for download for Pre-OS X.

Then, I followed a link they had to this Movian company, but it was a
404 error.  It appears the company has changed to one called Certicom.

But the post about not needing a VPN for Netgear jogged my memory and
I actually may not need a VPN for it to work properly.  I guess I'll
find out when the time comes!  If anyone else has other information or
suggestions, please post away.
