The Home Office Router search

I have been searching for the ultimate home office router/firewall. I would like the following:

  1. Gigabit
  2. VPN Endpoint
  3. QOS

Those are the main points I want in a router/firewall solution. I have been doing a lot of stuff on the road of late. I would like to access my net at home with a reliable commercial solution. (no offense open source)

I am now starting to do some research. I am looking at some possible sonicwall, watchguard, or juniper solution. However, I would like a less pricey solution. Preferably D-Link or Netgear. If anyone out there knows of anything, please reply.

Apparently, I am not the only one looking for these things. Greg Hughes seems to be searching for this as well. (I Have a dream the Perfect gigabit wireless router with vpn and QOS)

The Search is on!

    closest thing I ever found was the newer D Link DIR-855

    That and a Time Capsule cause you’re now a mac freak :-) I’m fairly happy with the original Airport Extreme (the older one is fast ethernet vs gig-E on the newer ones) and some USB drives hooked off it (I don’t care what the docs say, always format them Mac cause it’s near impossible to get large drives formatted FAT32).
