Thanks Brad Ellis, You are a big help and very nice person for helping everyone. Thank You for helping me. That helped me alot. I recommend Brad at optsys.net!
Ps. You happen to sell any routers too? Can you email me a quote please? Also, it wouldn't really hurt to buy that 4000M right? Because I don't have much money left- atleast it will do the same as the 25xx's right?
