John,

To find a commercially produced router that handles multiple SIP devices your going to be looking at at least a US$350 router.One of the only low end ones I'm aware of is the Intertex IX67 (http://www.voipsupply.com/product_info.php?products_id=2139). It has a sip server plus QOS, etc...

The Blackfin platform (http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/) seems to be a great one that will be coming on strong in the near future, that will be efficient, low power and deliver what a small office requires (http://www.astfin.org/ , http://www.rowetel.com/ucasterisk/ip04 ).

I'm also aware of a product coming to market shortly that should retail in the C$300 range is 100% hardware based and will support many more phones then your talking about and is perfectly geared for what your looking for( QOS, SNAT, DHCP, Endpoint Management ) plus more.

At this time I don't feel comfortable disclosing who, but they may........... I'm awaiting my beta units for testing!

What criteria are you using to validate what is considered good?

Good would be a device which can handle multiple (around 15) UDP SIP
registrations to a remote server and properly maintain the state of
these connections while the phone and/or the server issue keep-alive
messages.

I'm amazed at how many devices, even expensive high-end ones, can not do
UDP NAT properly.

This device should handle an office of up to 15 people with both
computers and phones.

Other than that we do not require any special features though QOS
support would be nice bonus but not required.

John

Ability to have large amounts of states?
High pps?
large packet handling?
Qos on the device?

We've been having this ongoing struggle trying to nail down a suitable
firewall/router device for use at small businesses who are using hosted
VoIP.

The criteria for the device is:

- Works with multiple VoIP devices connecting to a remote server
- off the shelf deployment (no "roll-your-own" devices).
- Price point suitable for small office (less than $200)
- Available in Canada

This has been surprisingly difficult.
