Paulo MatosoWhat type of connectivity are you going to have? Are you going to need the routers to cascade?

My ISP give me a direct ADSL line a 1024kbps.
I dont know if i need routers to cascade.

Sorry for my bad english

How many server's are you going to be running? Cascade simply means that you can tie multiple routers together in order to provide maximum speed and uptime.

I need a server for running only the vb3 board.
I have mine board in the VO but the servers of the VO are in the USA, what he makes board running slow.
I live in portugal

Well depending on how much money you are willing to spend, I would consider this one first. Very basic. Very secure. Very reliable.

If you are looking for something a little cheaper, anything by LinkSYS is a good investment. I ran a vBulletin machine from my house a while back on a LinkSYS DSL router. Had very little problems with it.
