hi tata,

if you need lots of specialized services in a single box and budget is limited, go for linux. way too expensive to buy a decent router with such. but you also have to consider how much electricity your pc will consume. it like comparing around a 150 watt appliance against about 30 watt (or less) appliance. plus a pc has more moving parts compared to a router appliance so it's more susceptible to breakdown.

other than that, i guess many usually deploy the same technologies.

Mga Igan,

broadband router vs. linux as a router....sa tingin nyo ano ang mas pinaka effective in terms of performance (security, firewall among others)?

Kelangan ko lang ang expert opinion at argumentong ito in depending my linux box.

Thanks in advance.

Tata
