Plus I've been considering getting PS Vue. It has some restrictions about needing to be on your home network both periodically and to access RSNs.
That's exactly what I use VPN for (along with VNC). I strongly suggest you look at dd-wrt. The odds are your existing router can be flashed with dd-wrt, the process is easy, and configuration is straight forward. Best of all, dd-wrt is free.
