Hello,
Get a GPRS subscription and card for Your office PC (I think it may be easier to get GPRS PCMCIA
card than GPRS PCI so ask for laptop upgrade at work if You still use desktop :-).
On home side, get unlimited "always on" broadband (if You don't have it already),
either to ADSL card in one of lab routers or to separate PC box with ADSL modem.
Then it's trivial to set SSH between the 2.
Costs involved:
-GPRS card ~#40
-GPRS subscription (prices start @ #4/mo+#1/Mb extra)
-ASDL broadband (cheapest is ~#13.99/mo)
All prices are current UK-based.
Advantages:
-always on, always connected (not only in the office but on the move,abroad,in the hotel room, etc)
Disadvantages:
-costs may be an issue
-low real throughput (~40-42kbps downlink, uplink is even slower) but if You are not uploading IOS remotely that could be enough for IOS CLI access (unless You are an extremely fast typist :-)
My 2 UK pence :-)
Cheers
Alex

Subject: Remotely Accesing Lab
Hi folks,
Wondering if anyone can come up with some suggestions to help me get
round a home lab access problem I'm facing.
I'd like to access my home lab, from work, during the quiet periods.
However the company policy where I'm at only allows http/https traffic
via a proxy (Ie. No telnet, or telneting on 80 and NAT'ing at my home
end).
I'm thinking maybe a webserver running some sort of telnet locally at
home which I can access via http and then to my access router.
But I'm open to any better ideas, or even recommendations on a
solution I can implement with minimal outlay.
Your help is very much appreciated.
John
