Hi,

I'm in singapore, I'm wondering whether anyone has recommendations..


I've already seen smoothwall and is currently evaluating the gpl version, but I may go for a more mission critical commerical version, but there are tons of features not available yet..


I've seen devices at www.firebrick.co.uk, www.fat-pipe.com etc

the linksys routers (RV042 etc) seem to have snat, upnp , and bonding but not the web proxy... but a dual option may be cheaper ..

if you have one with a reseller in singapore without a massive price tag, let me know..

features i'm looking for

-must have-
SNAT (ie: multiple wan ip support).
UPNP (eg: msn voice/video call)
web proxy with active directory user integration
anything absolutely essential.. (ids?)


--optionals--
mail proxy/antispam (keyword, autowhitelist, rbls, etc)
packet compression
adsl/dsl/t1 etc BONDING..
maybe vpn, but we're using remote desktop now.
anything else good to have..
