I have had to support this type of activity in the past as well and I agree
that an AS5300 (or newer) will do the job well. However, that's a fairly
expensive box. Cheaper alternatives would include a 2511/2513 router with
octal cable(s) and external modems or maybe a 3600 series router. These
both can provide this type of access. In my office, for engineers providing
remote dialup support, we use a 2509 with an octal cable and external
modems. Works well and is a fraction of the cost of an AS box.
Good luck!

You actually allow users to dial out from their desktops, while connected
to a lan??
The horror of it..
