Those are targeted for business, they are not versatile enough for amateur operations. IMHO, nothing beats a Linux box. Of course, there's a learning curve. But when you know the basics, it's an amazing system, for hamradio and many other purposes. Think about a Lego system : hundreds of Open Source "bricks" already exist all over the world. You just have to find them, and to assemble them the way you want. Don't be afraid, because there are thousands of tutorials available for merely any potential sutiation. And mailing lists, where people will be happy to help ;-) About hardware, Linux can be run on a variety of systems, from a $30 Raspberry Pi to a highly redundant multiprocessor enterprise server, or in the cloud. You can adapt the target platform to your needs and budget. Have a try ! You won't be disappointed ! PS: You kan keep a Cisco, or a SonicWALL, at the perimeter of your network, to be sure you won't do huge mistakes about security. That's what I'm doing.

Hi Ronen, The portal used to only show networks assigned to you, but too many people asked for this to be changed some time ago, because they are announcing other people's networks on their gateway. Regards, Chris Sent from my iPhone
