Cheapish. I have 20 plus sites out there so I need to watch the

I need the ability to force all traffic to an uplink port. In
other words I don't want any traffic from ap 1 to get to ap2
without first going through the router. But, I need the ability to
plug my laptop into a port that can still get to all other ports.
I also want to be able to block all broadcast traffic and non ip
traffic if I can.
5 port and 8 port versions would do the trick.
Mikrotik has the RB150 (5 ethernet ports) which can be had for
around $100 with power supply and case. They will soon release the
190 (not sure the part number), which will be less than $150
complete and have 9 ethernet ports.
I want the ability to call the factory for tech support.
Well, umm...maybe Mikrotik is not the answer. :-)
