Cisco 850 Series integrated services routers are fixed-configuration routers that support broadband cable and Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) over analog telephone lines connections in small offices. They provide the performance needed to run concurrent services, including firewall and encryption for VPNs and optional 802.11b/g for wireless networking. The Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) Web-based configuration tool simplifies setup and deployment, and centralized management capabilities give network managers visibility and control of router configurations at the remote site.
To maximize the performance of your Cisco hardware, Cisco strongly recommends Cisco SMARTnet Support. SMARTnet provides you with technical support, access to essential information, and advanced hardware replacement. To learn more, call your account manager or 1-800-800-0014 today!

Reviews & Ratings for 10/100 851W Integrated Services Router + 4-port switch + IOS Advanced Security Image We use these for some of our home users for a secure VPN connection. Good router and wonderful range they are worth the price. Is a little tricky to setup.

Pros: very secure, very stable Cons: initial configuration is difficult
Reviews & Ratings for 10/100 851W Integrated Services Router + 4-port switch + IOS Advanced Security Image I’m a pretty technical guy and this was extremely difficult for me to set up. Luckily, I purchased Cisco SMARTnet on this product (Cisco's support plan). Cisco was able to log in remotely and configure the device within 20 minutes!
