3620 - slow-assed proc. 64 megs ram, 2 netmods
3640 - faster 128 4 slots
3660 - fast as all hell, 256 max, 7 slots. (YES the ethernet
interface(s) are 0/0, and 0/1 netmod numbering starts at 1 and there are six
modular slots
261x - slow proc, 64 megs ram
262x - faster proc, 64 megs ram, fast ethernet on board
265x - faster than a 3640, 128 megs ram.
BEFORE BUYING A NETWORK MODULE FOR A 26xx seires router ASK SOMEONE WHO
KNOWS!!!!!
there are funky things here.
for example nm-1e2w wont work in a 2600 but nm-2w will. nm-4e will. nm-1e
will. you cant put in isdn bri and a vwic in the same chassis.
little things like that that can KILL you when you are onsite, and appear to
work till you get there.
be careful and ask someone.

The main differences between a 3640 and 2600s are follows (if I am wrong,
please correct me):
1) 3640 has faster processor than 2600,
2) 3640 has 2 NM slots compared to just 1 for 2600s (however, 2600 has
at least 1 built-in
Ethernet port compared to none for 3640,
3) 3640 can handle up to 128 MB of RAM compared to 64MB for 2600s,
4) With 3640, you can have extra PCMCIA Flash (in addition to internal
Flash). This
provides and extra redundancy in case the internal flash dies for
whatever reason (at
extra cost ofcourse). The 2600s does not have external PCMCIA
flash slot,
5) 3640 costs at least 3 times more than 2600s (I may be wrong here but
I know that the
3640 is quite expensive) not counting the extra modules that you
will have to purchase,
My advice is that if you don't anticipate any growth in the future, then
the 2600 will meet and/ord exceed your need. You should go with the 3640
only if you anticipate growth in the future. Those extra NM slots can
come really handy.
