Sample Scenario
Company: Wyman Discount Stores
This retail chain wants to connect each branch through a broadband connection (ADSL, cable, or satellite, depending on availability). The connection will need to be shared between 3-6 computers at each office
Approximate budget: $500 per router.
Concerns: The IT staff need the ability to remotely configure the router from head office. They would also prefer the ability to automatically failover to a modem connection if the broadband connection goes down. They also want to run the inter-office traffic over a VPN, so would prefer a device that handles the VPN.
Best Solution: The company would be happily served by pretty much any of the routers tested. All of the vendors have a range of products that will suit the needs of even the most discerning of buyers. A special mention has to go to both the Linksys and Netgear range of products for being the easiest to use and set up
