Hey,

Ok, as most of you know I just got a new server.. so I am really thinking about now is what firewall should I get.. My eye is caught on this: Sonicwall Tele3 TZ Firewall

But as I never set up a network or managed a server before I was wondering you're input. I'm using a Windows Server 2003 platform if that makes any diff. I also have 3 other computers which I am networking with. 2 running Windows XP Pro, and the other Windows Media Center 2005. I may set up a wireless network from that to my laptop. So what firewall? :p

That is a good router if you want VPN access and wireless.

That one is good for standard Router uses.

I prefer to stick with the big names like Cisco, Linksys and D-Link for Routers. though I have been known to own a Planet Wireless Router ;)

Hope this helps you out Swift.

Yeah for sure, so I really don't need any hardware firewalls. Ok, I did like that Wireless-G VPN Router with RangeBooster WRV200! It looks sexy as hell. I hate doin' port forwarding though. rofl, it's cool though. Thanks for the help. I'll let you guys test my network when I am done..
