Hello, you forgot to mention a lot of information: what kind of vpn you are using? what kind of laptop you are using? As you want to add hardware, where is the mesg? btw: I am not aware of any pcmcia device, usb device or pci express card doing cryptographic acceleration, but i am not that expert. But I think if you find such a thing, it is cheaper to buy a new laptop ;-) and another thing: maybe it would help to tweak your vpn config, but therefore it is needed! guido
