I don't know about the DS3 one as I am still looking for that myself,
but if you are looking for the T1, I sure would strongly recommend to go
with the "Accoom Networks Artery". I order one from Win and the process
couldn't be simpler so far! Plus what's the chance of it having problem.
The hardware is design by OpenBSD guys and the driver is written by
OpenBSD guys as well. Claudio did the driver for it!
So, what could be wrong with it I asked!
Plus, just think about it for well.... may be two seconds max, that's
one way to also give back to the project, or at a minimum some guys from
the project!
So, my answer is simple. Why even asked the question to start with, as
long as you are looking for T1/E1 obviously!
If you are looking for DS3, then you are just like me, still trying to
figure out witch one to use. I wish OpenBSD had one as well. Look to me
with all the routing protocol design and in the system now, we only need
good hardware to go with it and then Cisco and Juniper will have a nice
run for their money.
Hope this help you some.
As for the DS3, if you get an answer on that one, please share with us!
