<DIV><SPAN class=000532116-04012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm looking for
opinions on the "best value" router to use for home offices. It should
work for a scenario in which there are 3 computers and 2 SIP phones,
handling QoS so that the phones always have higher priority traffic than the
PCs. (and not rely on the phones to do the QoS because some PCs may not be
connected to the phones).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=000532116-04012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>QoS could be based
on destination and source IP (i.e. an Asterisk server) or MAC address of the
phones. </FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=000532116-04012007><FONT face=Arial

bonus.</FONT> </SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=000532116-04012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>What are people on
this list using? I've found that the mention QoS on a box doesn't
guarantee any real QoS functionality.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
