Do they provide you with a single ethernet port where you can connect
only a single PC without providing your own router, or does the device
have multiple ports and/or you could connect your own switch and have
many pcs access the internet without further hardware and/or software?
I ask this because it is very likely that the box you got from the
provider already is a router and provides NAT functionality to translate
many internal PC addresses to a single external address.
It will be more difficult to connect another router to such a device
and then setup IPsec tunnels.

If you need to ask this, it might be better to ask a supplier to
configure everything for you, or to go with another manufacturer who
is more oriented towards do-it-yourself installation of their equipment
without too much expertise.
