The best at any price doesn't seem to fit here. You only choose a
commodity router to save money. I don't know anything about Imagestream
specifically, but I certainly looked into Linux-based routers. In fact,
we even ran Linux-based routers initially before going Cisco. We didn't
blindly go with Cisco like many companies either. We looked long and
hard at what every major vendor had to offer and ultimately went with
Cisco. Certainly there aren't any Linux-based routers that out perform
high-end Cisco routers, but that wasn't the most important part. The
ability to support features such as MPLS, find labor resources familiar
with Cisco, and ultimately being able to finance the gear make Cisco the
clear choice.

Sorry to answer my own post but I should also mention that if I ever
have a larger enterprise client (like a college, hospital, etc.) that
needs a bullet-proof routing solution I will likely sell them
Imagestream. My next big router for my core will be an Imagestream.
Everyone I speak to about them say they are the best out there at any
price.

We have good luck with Linksys. If the customer is a larger business
client or someone who needs higher reliability and better features we
often load up Mikrotik on a Routerboard or WRAP board.
