A 3550 maybe an option, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks! ----- Reply message ----- From: "Keegan Holley" <[email protected]> Date: Thu, Feb 17, 2011 2:10 pm Subject: [c-nsp] Older Cisco Routers - which one to go with? To: "Graham Wooden" <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]>
I wouldn't use the 2651 for much else than maybe a door-stop. The 2801 might not be able to do 20M ethernet depending on what else you are asking it to do. Can you use a switch here? If it's all ethernet than a 3560 or even a 3550/3750 would be fine. They even have 8 port 3560's for cheap. Also, I think the 2800 and 2600XM's were (mostly) hardware based.
