Hmm. Of the options presented so far, this Mikrotik RB750 sounds the most promising.
I've found that Linksys products have a tendency to partially or completely fail on a regular basis for no apparent reason. The Cisco 819, however, is far too expensive for this penny-ante project. The Cisco 806, on the other hand, looks great, especially for the 1mbit application. Is there another Cisco router like that but with 10/100 Ethernet ports? If so, that would probably be the ideal. [I'll be buying these on eBay anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's EOL. And at prices like this, one can afford a spare or two...] Thanks again, Rusty D On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 8:37 PM, Roy <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Mikrotik :-) The RB750 will do it > > > On 7/19/2012 5:19 PM, Rusty Dekema wrote: > >> Good evening, >> >> This question is a bit far afield for this list, but I need a reliable, >> quiet-or-silent, low-power-consumption Cisco router with two 10 or 10/100 >> Ethernet ports.
