100Mbit on the internal network is nice. Most SOHO routers today come
with a built-in switch.

A router with a ISDN interface for fallback connectivity?
<recommendation>
Draytek makes the Vigor series routers. I've used their 2000, 2200E,
2200X and 2300 models and they all perform well and are easy to
configure. Nowadays, cheaper routers are to be had, but these often lack
in configurability and features.
AFAIK, from the 2200 models and up, at least 8 concurrent VPN
connections can be used.
The firewall configuration smells like IPF to me. ;-)
</recommendation>
In other words: I like 'em... Nico
