No wireless needed - my concern with the RB1100 was that I have seen topics come up about ethernet issues with those units. I'm not sure if it also affects the 1200, but if it does I'd probably stay away from them due to that fact.

Hi guys,

I lost my "beloved" RB1000 the other day due to fan failure and it's time to 
start considering what I should replace it with (and what to stock a spare of).

This will be a router for my company (not a WISP). Our internet feed is 50Mb 
and on average, I would say there is no more than 25-30Mbit being pushed 
through the unit, however I did notice a huge performance hit when I plopped in 
my temporary RB750 to get my internet connection back up and running. I don't 
run much in the way of simple queues other than Butch's QoS script. I have a 
handful of firewall rules dictating which subnets can talk to who. The router 
also has an EoIP tunnel to another router for failover and acts as a PPTP VPN 
server.

I'm looking for something that will offer similar performance to what my RB1000 
provided me. Port count isn't critical, but I'd like at least 3 and they have 
to be gigabit. I'm not overly concerned about rackmount or not as I have a 
shelf I could set the unit on. By far the most critical piece though has to be 
stability - both in the platform itself and ethernet performance.

So far, I've been looking at the RB450G, the RB1200 and the RB800. I've looked 
at a few of the x86 boards, but I believe these might be overkill for my 
particular application.

What do you guys think?
