Hi All
Anyone use Fixed IP Sims and GPRS to remotely connect to their machines?
I'm looking at moving from GSM connectivity to GPRS.
1. Does the SIM provider give me a 'VPN' of sorts to access my SIMs?
2. How do I VPN to the provider - do they provide this software?
3. My GPRS modem has a serial port. Will it 'strip off' the ethernetty packet stuff and leave me with what I need? I'm guessing that there's an ethernet to serial gateway built-in; or is this not the norm?
4. Email. Can it?
Particulary interested in UK members, as there seems to be one main supplier of this service over here, so chances are you'd have specific experience of the people I plan to approach.
Cheers
