Get to Know the RV042 and RV042G VPN Routers

Objective

The RV042 is a dual WAN VPN router of the RV0XX series. The RV042G is the improved version of the RV042 which supports higher speeds and IPSec VPN throughput. Both provide a reliable, high performance, secured connectivity. They can also provide an alternative Internet connection which ensures reliable and non stop connectivity even if the first Internet connection fails. A second Internet connection can also increase the bandwidth and split high load traffic.
