Wait.. a Bay BCN will push 1 Gb/s through the box, but you are recommending a PC running GateD over a Bay router? If you are going to tell people "don't use this" a least give some reasons why to justify it.
Well I also like PC Routers over BCN. You are right a BCN can push much more data then a PC Router, but of you look at value and ease of use the PC Routers wins. When you need more bandwidth then a PC can handle then you can move to a GRF and just copy over your configs. :-)
