INTRODUCTION



    This is a production release of firmware for the Digi ConnectPort WAN VPN.



    The ConnectPort WAN VPN is a hardened, upgradeable 3G cellular router
    that provides secure high speed wireless connectivity to remote sites and
    devices.  It can be used for primary wireless boradband network 
    connectivity to equipment at remote locations, as well as for a backup
    to existing landline communications.  The ConnectPort WAN VPN is ideal
    for use where wired networks (e.g., leased line/frame relay, ISDN, DSL)
    are not feasible, or where alternative network connections are required.
