There is a larger case for use with the expansion card. Since MT decided to EOL the RB1000, the RB800 is the next best thing. The only drawback to the RB800 IMO is the cpu fan. I have heard that some people are running it without a fan (adding a simple heat sink) without issues, but I don't recommend that. As for the expansion card, it's the same card as the RB600 (also EOL) expansion I think. I wish they would build a GigE expansion board for that router, but I have heard no plans for such a device. Hit me offlist if you need a quote for these. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation * * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://store.wispgear.net/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * ImageStream, Mikrotik and MORE! * * NOTE THE NEW PHONE NUMBER: 702-537-0979 * ******************************************************************** _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list Mikrotik@mail.butchevans.com http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS
