To check the VPN connection, you can initiate a request from the remote PC to the N300
wireless modem router’s network by using the Connect option in the NETGEAR ProSafe
menu bar. The NETGEAR ProSafe client reports the results of the attempt to connect.
Since the remote PC has a dynamically assigned WAN IP address, it must initiate the
request.
