I would also recommend to look at the "Incarda" router card, it's about the same price (if I am not mistaken) as Sangoma. The reason why I prefer to use it is because it's completely independent router with hardware firewalls and other Ip filters, and all the routing compatibilities are already in the card so you don't have to waste computer resources on building firewalls and running gated. It is managed by telnet (the only thing that card takes from the computer is power, it is not related to the software that runs on the computer) or menu based dos program. The site is http://www.sourcecom.com/ products: http://www.sourcecom.com/pub/products/products.htm There are also external models (same card just in small box and power supply) which CSU/DSU support. (this product family is called "InRoute") Good Luck, borik -- Boris D.
