I use a Nortel CES IPsec VPN all the time on AT&T (Mediaone).

No worries so far.

Anyone ever run into trouble with cable modem ISP's disabling use of VPN
client software, as per this article, being discussed on slashdot:

I have a Cisco VPN 5001, which a number of fac/staff I support use.  As
I'm sure you know, supporting what people do on their home computers is a
bitch.  Most people are using AT&T Broadband around here, and according to
this article, they appear to allow, but not support VPN clients.

Has anyone ever had any experience to the contrary?  Either with AT&T, or
any other provider.  If so, that would be very useful information for me.
