Better performance and a better price and easier configuration is available from Asatro Security Linux. Ws tested in the German Network World edition, had 3 times better performance than Pix 515, and was half price. You need an old Pc (or take a new $500 PC), I believe their price for the SW for your installation should be $1500 including virus protection. Have never had an easier to install firewall.

Our communication lines that we use are 3 T1 lines. We have 14 employees in the office and a development website. When the website goes live it could have 500 concurrent users on it. We would like a firewall that is reliable and somewhat easy to configure. I have heard the Watchguard is easier to configure, but Cisco PIX are one of the best firewall, but a little harder to get up and going. Any suggestions would be gladly accepted.
