We've used mikrotik routerboards that support ev-do as wireless serial adapters.. It is only good for a single port application.. but it works.. and at a price of $99.. it would certainly support access lists.. we have them dial back to a pptp concentrator... just a thought..

Benjamin Kessler Cc: nanog () nanog org Subject: Re: ethernet to serial converters with ACLs Avocent / Cyclades boxes have ACL capability (they run Linux) and can be used with EV-DO/GSM modems. They may not be the lowest cost solution, but there is a central management system and a wide range of serial interface units from single port to at least 32 ports.
