I just installed pfsense, and honestly, if you're asking this question, my guess is that it does everything you need and has easy-to-install packages to extend its functionality. Personally, I prefer PIX/ASA for this sort of deployment, but I've deployed everything under the sun from CheckPoints/SonicWALL/Juniper/Nokia/etc. You can get a cheapo 1U server for like $400, and that should do everything you could ever even think about needing for that sort of office. The "problem" with servers like this is that there are way more things to go wrong. Getting, say, a PIX with the SmartNET is probably a much better long term soln for a client like this. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
