The problem withthe Sonic Wall IMO is that the web interface is only local!!! Major drawback for remote admin. I like Rebel's NetWinder better. Rebel.com I think. I have two of those at clients and one SOHO box, which I am really disappointed with, unless I someday need a content analyser: that the SOHO has. Marie ----- Original Message ----- From: Frank R.

Steven: I don't know how it compares to the rest of the units out there, but I've been using the SonicWall router. It has 2 ethernets and even a model that has a DMZ. It's not low cost like the Linksys, but it does have quite a
bit
of control with a nice HTML interface. There's also a VPN option (which costs more again, but it's available if
you
want to expand). The other product similar in price and capability appears to be the WatchGuard though I haven't done anything with it. I use the SonicWall at my office and for some of my small clients.

Also, if possible, please let me know how configurable the firewall is.
The
last thing I want is a firewall that disallows me from doing anything
"fun".
I want to be able configure it for any type of inbound or outbound traffic (particularly outbound traffic, I'm trying to keep the bad guys out, not
the
good guys in). Thanks much, Steven Osman _______________________________________________ Firewall-wizards mailing list Firewall-wizards () nfr net http://www.nfr.net/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards _______________________________________________ Firewall-wizards mailing list Firewall-wizards () nfr net http://www.nfr.net/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
