Hi Jonathan
Perhaps your cheap router (and I'm saying this because you mentioned as few
posts ago) has redundant hardware like these one have, or perhaps your
backplane (BTW: do you know what backplane your router has??!!) supports the
amount of traffic that these ones supports, or perhaps can active support
with low SLAs or perhaps you can have redundant configuration, or perhaps...
Ops... I just noticed, perhaps you don't have a clue what I'm talking
about!!!!

I hope that the information above helps you.
Have a Nice day.

We use our one of our data centers internal default gateway (Router).
Everything feeds off of that.
It had best work well. It was $100K +.
So what benefit is that $100K extra stratum gaining you? It has to be
more than just splitting the UDP/IP path to the lower stratum servers in
twain. But it's not reliability, because if your router goes down it
still takes your NTP server with it. So what is it? Do you perhaps
synchronize everything with that machine directly, without the usual
Windows Time Service hierarchy in between?
