Great product, but no updates without maint contract
By G. Frank
This router is more robust and flexible than most out there for the price. It has features such as dual-WAN (properly executed, unlike most consumer dual WAN products out there), it has excellent firewall features, and it includes Cisco SDM, their configuration tool that helps avoids misconfiguration leading to security holes and functionality problems.HOWEVER - Cisco is IMPOSSIBLE to deal with. They require a maintenance contract to be purchased with a Cisco reseller simply to download a software update. It infuriates me that I would have to pay money to someone for doing nothing but displaying a Cisco logo. I am perfectly able to apply updates on my own without having to pay - and Cisco should catch up with the times. This practice of requiring maint contracts for any downloaded updates is a major negative and steers me to look for other products.

Awesome Router
By shaft
This is an excellent low cost router for setting up your CCNA lab. I prefer to work on real equipment even if it is a little older than the current equipment in modern enterprises. You get to use the actual Cisco commands via command line and see how the equipment responds and is great for troubleshooting. The modern lab at my school has 1841s and 2811 and this router was about $100, good price.

Great router
By dj3will
Does everything I need. Running 2 linux servers and a wap with about 5 constant devices across 4 subnets. I bought this to practice for the ccna and also run scenarios. The service contract is required to download any updates as ios 11 and lower do not have support for DHCP that most consumer isps support. It will run you about $150. I did max out the memory and upgraded the flash card, which for me both worked with "non cisco" media perfectly fine. All in all im satisfied.
