Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Cisco 850 Series integrated services routers are fixed-configuration routers that support broadband cable and Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) over analog telephone lines connections in small offices. They provide the performance needed to run concurrent services, including firewall and encryption for VPNs and optional 802.11b/g for wireless networking. The Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) Web-based configuration tool simplifies setup and deployment, and centralized management capabilities give network managers visibility and control of router configurations at the remote site.





Rating: - Too complex
The SDM configurator is very difficult and requires even changes to the vista settings before it works. The automated configurator is not very reliable and I got intractable configuration errors preventing good operation. After several failed attemps and factory resets, it finally worked with a basic configuration. Unfortunatly, it is so complex and obscure that now I am reluctant to turn on the features I bought this device for.

Rating: - entry level business grade router
My old Linksys router broke after 5 yrs of use and I had a hard time finding a good replacement unit that works w/ my wireless router acting as AP.

It comes with a CD with the graphics interface software to configure the router. I don't think ... Read More

Rating: - The most reliable part of my network
I am a software engineer who sometimes thinks he's a network engineer too. I run one commercial and one private system from home, with DNS, web, and e-mail service for each, and have a commercial broadband connection through Verizon Online DSL with 5 static IP addresses. After spending days reading specs and reviews of various pro-consumer routers, SOHO routers, and enterprise routers, and after having experienced downright horrible router software and performance from home/consumer routers, I ...

Rating: - A very solid router but certainly not for amateur
As a home user, after upgrading my broadband to 6.0mb/s from Comcast, both my netgear and linksys routers were overwhelmed and couldn't cope up with all the activities for the 5 computers, Xbox360 and Slingbox in the house. After researching all the business class routers, including Netgear, Linksys, Sonicwall and others. Finally, I've decided that Cisco is the best product that would solve my problem. Knowing that this is a sophiscated product, I ordered the most basic router without wireless access ... Read More
