I need a router, which can take 2 4xT1's and a DS-3, while handing a Gbit for internal use. Now to complicate the entire situation, this needs to go into a 3 bedroom apartment, so I need to keep the power bills down if I can :) What would everyone recommend? Off-List replies are fine, I will summarize at the end.x86 PC with a gig-E, DS-3 and however many DS-1 PCI cards you need. Sangoma[0] and SBE Inc.[1] both sell these (*BSD/Linux compatibility was a big selling point for me). You can even get a Soekris box with one of the Sangoma T1 cards pre-installed for you.

Imagestream (www.imagestream.com)routers may work for you as well. They are essentially x86 based and probably support a high number of T-1 cards. Electricity consumption is probably better with a lower power/lower heat PC motherboard than an off-the-shelf solution -- that'd be my guess.
