What Software Router/Internet Sharing Software For Win Xp Pro Do You Prefer (And Why)?
Hey all, Just wondering what software ‘router’/internet sharing software for Windows XP you prefer and why. Anything is okay (but no hardware or *nix solutions please). The way I see it, the main ones are WinGate, WinRoute (Firewall) and SyGate (Office and Home) with SolidShare also out there. From the little I’ve read, WinRoute has more features then SyGate. WinRoute amd SyGate have the advantage of good built-in firewalls that are also stand alone products. WinGate and SolidShare (and SyGate Home) have firewalls but they aren’t perhaps as versatile as the WinRoute and SyGate (Office). But WinGate does have many features including the good WinGate Redirector Service combined with the WinGate Internet Client which can make the sharing more transparent for apps requiring outgoing. There are probably a lot of other differences I missed. Then there are others of course like Nat32, ICS, Microsoft ISA (altho that’s for Windows Server) etc. Interested to hear what people use and what people
