Then one has to know how to configure all that completely manually by hand. Plus, the person on each end of the VPN must learn the ropes on how to set it all up which further complicates things, and if you want to set up a link between more than 2 end points, you then have to decide on either a client-server model where one person is a central hub for all the others, or if it is a completely peer-to-peer mesh type topology (such as what apps like Hamachi offer).
NEOROUTER NOT CONNETING SOFTWARE
The average computer user and even many people who are administrators generally do not have the low-level networking knowledge and experience to set this all up, and without some kind of "wizard" type software to do all the details magically including things like NAT traversal, it can be complicated to learn how to set it all up and get it to work. Additionally, it is up to the person setting up the OS provided VPN to understand how firewalls and NAT work, and to make sure their firewalls are configured properly to allow the proper protocols and ports out of their network, and to allow incoming protocols and ports into their network including any protocol and/or port forwarding that is needed. The only real problem is that the software that comes with the OS to set this up is just your basic dumb control panel type applet, without an easy-button.
Both Windows and Linux come with built in IPSec tunnel capabilities and all one has to do is configure both ends of the tunnel to connect two computers over the Internet without any 3rd party services being involved. Is there something like this, but universal, that is designed not only for a single game? You can set up a point to point VPN between two computers (or two routers) using just the software that comes with the OS without installing any 3rd party applications at all if you desire. I'm talking about a tool functioning similarly to popular LAN emulators for Warcraft 3 which allow you to host and see LAN games of/for others after direct connecting to one of them, who becomes the host. I'm wondering if there is any sort of application that allows you to play LAN games via the Internet, but doesn't require connection to external servers, like Hamachi, GameRanger or Tunngle does?
