I’ve used the Netscreen SMB stuff and the SonicWalls once. Saw a Netgear one but didn’t play with it and the interface suggested it had a pretty good feature set. Agreed they’re all worth looking at. Its ahrd to recommend any one make/model without some more solid requirements from the OP

 

Thanks,

Don't forget Netscreen, Sonic Wall and the Netgear Pro line.. both offer some very nice features with ease of management.

Nokia and Pix are similarly priced at the low end.

Yeah, a Nokia running Checkpoint is really expensive, and probably way out of budget for what the OP is looking for if I had to hazard a guess. I think Pix and Checkpoint and others all have their places. For a small business looking for an Internet firewall, I think a mid-end pix fits the bill pretty well.

I don't like Pix's, hate how they are managed and I think the interface is bad.

 

I prefer Netscreen and Nokia (or a server running Checkpoint, but the Nokias are better for most instances). For a small company ISA Server might be an option as well, it is a lot better in the latest version than it was in the past. I still like little appliances like the Nokia though.

This sort of application is something that a little Pix works well for -
something like a 515E.

I've also seen a bunch of those Sonicwalls and Fireboxes as well in this
market.

For small networks with 250 nodes or less, what/how are you all
protecting your servers? Windows firewall, 3rd part vendor, or just
standard Windows security?
