To get back slightly to the topic in hand ... Checkpoint firewall NG - runs on a version of unix ... Sonicwall - runs a version of unix Why be scared to use open source when so many other LARGE vendors do ..... -----Original Message----- From: Eric Collins [mailto:eric at tawifi dot com] Sent: Friday, 25 February 2005 10:33 AM To: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] Re: Experiences in 50+ user organizations? Now while I agree with Jesse on a "saturated" T1 its is kinda touch and go, especially if you have alot of shaping going on, but I have several client T1's that I use the 4801's on and they are fine 99.9% of the time, no problems whatso ever. So no I dont think it would be a problem. I also use the 4801 on my home connection which is 5mbit Wifi and it purrs along just fine with no problems. As for your wifi feed I think the soekris boards will be just fine, we use them in several 5-10mbit wifi feeds without problems, and I am sure alot of other people use them in the same way. Now the Soekris did not work for our datacenter, but with the amount of traffic we push it is not surprising in the least. -Eric Seth Rothenberg wrote: >>I tend to agree with this.... >>I wouldn't place a Soekris 4801 on anything larger >>than a saturated T1 though. >> >> > >I have 2 questions on this thread - >which has been getting me nervious....but maybe unnecessarily... > >So, if you have a not-saturated T1, Soekris is OK? >(I have two 4521 in service and would like to keep them a while :-) > >What about a wifi feed?
