GB-2000E and GB-1500  is best choice!
Try it.

Subject: Need secure firewall for SOHO


To the group,

I have a colleague who has a SOHO network using ADSL. He is using a
standard  Linksys router for his firewall, but has reached a limit in
the number of  ports it can open and manage. I don't have one on hand to
check, but  evidently the Linksys only has ten slots to configure ports
to be opened and  he needs 12-15 or so.

Without a lot of money he wants to get a different firewall up and
running  that has more ports that it can manage.
I suggested the free version of zone alarm as the only free one I'm
aware  of; however it turns out that he wrote his thesis on how you can
crack zone  alarm.

Looking for another much more secure solution?

Thanks,

Jim,
