As the other guy mentioned, you it's pretty hard to test VPN between devices while they are all in the same location.

If you just want to test them... you can take a stand alone switch, plug the internet port of the DDWRT's in it.  Assign external IP's to the machines 10.1.1.10/32, 10.1.1.20/32, 10.1.1.30/32

then in the VPN setup you would you the IP's of the remote one you want to connect to.  to test, you would need to hang a computer off the internal side of each router, and then ping test.

While I've never played with DD-WRT before I'm sure I could give you hand if no one else is available.

Ok, we worked on trying to get the VPN's working in my office with little luck.  
DD-WRT is on them with the OpenVPN software on them BUT the VPN is not working.  I used these instrucitons:

I am willing to pay someone to help me get this running, early this evening!  I get home @5pm.  If we can get the primary router working and the 2 client routers, I can get them onsite tonight still!

TY!!

Subject: [olug] VPN Hardware

Got an emergency call for support today.  I have 3 sites.  1 is the home site, 2 remote sites.  I need to VPN all traffic from the remote sites into the home site.  What hardware can I purchase and put in place in the next 48 hours to make this happen?  It needs to be local purchase though since this is time sensitive.
 
Thanx to any and all help!!
