Help needed - laymans terms please!

Hi @Ben_Ritmeyer, welcome to Peplink.

You will need a second device in order to create a PepVPN / SpeedFusion tunnel. As you mentioned, this other device could be a physical device hosted in your own office / DataCentre or a virtual appliance called a FusionHub. The FusionHub can be host remotely (Amazon, as you mention) or on a Virtual server in your own DataCentre.

The second device will need a public (ideally static) IP address, in order to create the tunnel from your HD2.

The simplest way (but doesn’t allow as many “tweaks”), is to use InControl * (Signup Here) - with the 2 devices added to the same group you can create a tunnel. Both devices will need to have different network (LAN) addresses.

Here is a video to explain how to setup a PepVPN / SpeedFusion tunnel using InControl : Here

There is also a post on the forum which explains how to configure the tunnel manually, which will enable fine-tuning, as you become more familiar with the range of Peplink / Pepwave products, Here is a > Link <

As you resller mentioned, the forum is a great place to look for answers and ask questions, your reseller may also be able to help too - we are a community and we like to share best practices but also help each other.

  • InControl is a free cloud based management solution for your Peplink / Pepwave products - providing they are within warranty or (for some models) have a valid InControl subscription.

Once again, welcome to Peplink.

Steve
