I have a 827, forgive me as Im still trying to get my head around cisco.
We are on adsl with 6 machines conected, serving on occasions, ftp, gaming,
rodger wilco, from several of the machines with the ports req'd opened to
the machine that runs the server.
I dont understand why the 827 couldnt also be used on cable in the same way.
